Forecasts

Zaman Jameel (6/4), Politics (15/8), Regional (10/3), Bescar (16/1), Hoofs Happy Now (25/1), Enderman (28/1), Elzaal (50/1), Upside Down (66/1), Mick's Spirit (80/1)

Verdict

Not a particularly strong maiden to open the card but one that should give ZAMAN JAMEEL a good opportunity to put the experience he gained at York when trying to go with the useful Muker to good use. Only beaten 5L he shaped as though there was more to come and the Ryan team have been going well of late. Richard Fahey has won this in four of the last seven year including the last two runnings but never with a newcomer but his debutante Regional has to be worth a noting. Politics is another newcomer to be aware of given his €78,000 purchase price, a rare Pontefract 2yo debutante for Andrew Balding. A market move for either Mick’s Spirit or Bescar would be interesting.
  1. Zaman Jameel
  2. Regional
  3. Politics
