Forecasts

Tonto's Spirit (11/8), Nietzsche (2/1), Saint Freule (3/1), River Frost (8/1)

Lucinda Russell has only saddled seven runners (one winner) at Sedgefield since April 2015, so the headstrong and enigmatic Saint Freule is a notable entrant for the Perth & Kinross based handler. Winner of a point-to-point (Feb 2017), the chasing game may ultimately be his making, although given his flaky temperament he is a risky proposition. Nietzsche has possibly lost his confidence over fences after a novicey display at Cartmel (penultimate), and he never at any stage looked to be in the mood for jumping fences at Kelso. Therefore, the fluent-fencing and evidently much more straightforward TONTO'S SPIRIT offers the risk-free solution to this small-field affair.
