Forecasts

Clondaw Rigger (5/2), Boric (7/2), Shanroe Street (4/1), Misfits (9/2), Letemgo (11/2), Walkin In The Rain (7/1)

Verdict

The veteran BORIC needs to put a below par run last time out at Newcastle behind him but if he can return to the form he showed previously at Sedgefield and Market Rasen then he looks like having a great chance to add to his four chase victories to date. The 12-year-old is an out and out stayer and will not be inconvenienced by any further rainfall. Another who needs to bounce back from a below par run last time out is Misfits who perhaps found 3m6f too much for him at Bangor and a return to this shorter trip should suit. Clondaw Rigger has not been finishing too many of his races of late but when he does, he has talent and has a reasonable if everything falls right for him.
