Forecasts

Steel Wave (6/4), Max Do Brazil (2/1), Traditional Dancer (3/1), Henryville (5/1)

Verdict

Seven-year-olds have won every running of this and MAX DO BRAZIL despite being 2lb out of the handicap ought to be much better suited by returning to a left-handed track having proved successful at Fakenham and Uttoxeter off lesser marks. Although he was beaten last time he has fewer questions to answer than the other trio. Steel Wave is more consistent than the other two although the handicapper looks to have his measure now and this trip could test him. At one time Henryville would have been a gift of this mark against this bunch but you are never sure which version will turn up these days and the same could be said of Traditional Dancer who is another one that is hard to catch right.
  1. Max Do Brazil
  2. Steel Wave
  3. Henryville
