Forecasts

The Paddy Pie (5/2), Flowery (7/2), Instant Replay (6/1), Eceparti (6/1), Bollin Ace (13/2), River Frost (12/1), King's Odyssey (14/1), Charmix (18/1), Scoop The Pot (25/1)

Verdict

Many are re-routed from last Saturday's cancelled Newcastle fixture including The Paddy Pie who not only has related from with Flowery and the course specialist Instant Replay, but who also finished runner-up in this contest last year. King's Odyssey probably found the trip on the short side when beaten at Wetherby latest, but would hold a chance on the strength of his Warwick win (beat Smooth Stepper by ½L). However, the in-form Venetia Williams isn't necessarily a Sedgefield regular and we should take the hint with the progressive ECEPARTI (3-5 over fences) who could just scrape another victory before the handicapper thwarts his positive momentum.
