Forecasts

Dame Freya Stark (9/4), Catch My Breath (9/4), Reddiac (4/1), Canasta (9/2), Winter Snowdrop (5/1), Carlow Boy (14/1), Lynchpin (14/1), Margaret J (25/1), Global Goddess (28/1)

Verdict

Some of these will struggle to win handicaps off their current marks but CANASTA still looks to have some progress left in her especially with this increased test of stamina looking to suit after finishing a very sound third on the AW last time. Catch My Breath hasn’t quite proved his stamina for this distance yet but his form over shorter suggests he will stay given a sound underfoot surface. Reddiac and Carlow Boy both have some positives in their profile and can be expected to do better while Dame Freya Stark from the all-conquering Johnston yard can’t be left out of the picture despite topweight and a long absence.
