Forecasts

Kauto D'Amour (7/4), Overcourt (9/4), Federici (6/1), Big Bad Dream (8/1), Do Not Disturb (8/1), Carrigmoorna Matt (11/1), So Lonely (16/1), Burdigala (50/1)

Verdict

Federici was given a most enterprising ride by Abbie McCain at Sedgefield earlier this month and has been fairly reassessed with a 4lb weights rise, while it would be foolish to also completely dismiss the chances of either Do Not Disturb or the 2m course winner Kauto D'Amour. However, the horse to focus most closely upon is the improving and lightly raced recent Musselburgh scorer OVERCOURT who should prove tough to beat for the Borders handler Sandy Thomson.
  1. Overcourt
  2. Do Not Disturb
  3. Federici
