Forecasts

Doing Fine (13/8), Firebird Flyer (9/2), Mercers Court (11/2), Cruising Bye (6/1), Henllan Harri (9/1), Uhlan Bute (9/1), Silver Tassie (12/1), Al Co (25/1)

Verdict

This sphere at least gives one of these a chance to get back on the winning trail with last year’s winning trainer (Peter Bowen) running two although it would look as though Hellan Harri is his best chance of taking this prize again. Doing Fine has slipped to a mark that he should be able to win off but he does take a while to get going now and this track may prove sharp enough. Firebird Flyer showed that he still had some spark left in him last time over hurdles but he has to prove himself back over fences. It’s a long time since SILVER TASSIE won but his trainer has taken this before and off an acceptable mark he’s given a chance to get back on the winning trail.
  1. Silver Tassie
