Forecasts

Hold That Taught (8/13), Shanacoole Prince (11/4), Alnadam (6/1), Rootless Tree (12/1), Present Chief (25/1), Winged Affair (40/1), Skylanna Breeze (66/1), The Garrison (100/1), Dont Tell The Wife (100/1), Gallic Geordie (100/1), Zlatan (100/1)

Verdict

A few of these will be of more interest once getting a mark and going into handicaps - Zlatan and Skylanna Breeze head that list up - but this may concern the three penalised runners. With Alnadam needing to improve on what he achieved at Uttoxeter, HOLD THAT TAUGHT, who created a very good impression when successful at Lingfield, may be the one to with. He looks destined for better races than this and can take this en route. Shanacoole Princelooked a thorough stayer when winning at Hereford and will enjoy the long run for home here.
  1. Hold That Taught
  2. Shanacoole Prince
  3. Alnadam
