Forecasts

First Flow (15/8), Delire D'Estruval (11/4), Dolos (7/2), Joke Dancer (4/1), Caid Du Lin (16/1), Diakali (40/1)

A typical Sandown handicap where it would be easy to make a case for all six of the runners but DELIRE D'ESTRUVAL has a good record here over fences and a repeat of his last performance over C&D would be good enough to win this. Last year’s winner Dolos can’t be written off easily as he handles the ground although his mark may just anchor him this time. With Caid Du Lin and Diakali both having a little to find at this level it looks as though First Flow will be the main danger. He ran better than his finishing position at Ascot last time and the terrain will hold no fears for him.
