Forecasts

The Happy Chappy (9/4), Midnight Magic (4/1), Hurricane Arcadio (6/1), Lady London (8/1), Cinevator (9/1), Sonoftheking (9/1), Bermeo (10/1), Misdflight (10/1), River Of Intrigue (20/1), Fair Exchange (28/1), Betterlatethanneva (100/1)

Verdict

Low grade stuff, but it's competitive and should be run at a good pace, with a few in here wanting a share of the lead early. MIDNIGHT MAGIC probably needed his run here two weeks ago, his first since December, and with that under his belt, he can strip fitter here and get on the scoresheet. The Happy Chappy should be staying on better than a few at the business end and hit the frame. Bermeo is interesting back on better ground and is another thorough stayer that will appreciate a good pace. Lady London could attract support on first start for her new yard.
