Forecasts

Sermon (10/11), Shammah (11/4), Dream Kart (9/2), Dark Optimist (12/1), Zulu Zander (14/1), Lexi The One (16/1), Bezzas Lad (16/1), Newsical (20/1), Bob's Oss (66/1)

Verdict

The leading nursery trainer in the country so far is Mark Johnston who saddles Dream Kart in this but despite being a consistent performer she looks to have tough task off topweight despite having a decent draw. Shammah was well beaten on her nursery debut but has the saving grace of the inside draw here which may well induce a better performance. On form both Lexi The One and Bezzas Lad would have a chance but both have far from ideal draws and this may be best left to SERMON. He was slightly unlucky last time when second in a finish of noses and necks over C&D having covered more ground than the winner; a repeat on handicap debut would see him open his account.
  1. Sermon
  2. Shammah
