Forecasts

Artic Mann (7/4), Big Jim Dwyer (9/2), Spanish Jump (5/1), Loughermore (13/2), Serious Ego (13/2), For Three (8/1), Sidi Ismael (8/1), Red Reminder (17/2), Northern Bound (10/1), Taking Flight (16/1), Pammi (22/1), Tawseef (25/1), Quest For Life (40/1), Frightened Rabbit (40/1), Ryedale Racer (80/1)

Verdict

A few with chances but ARTIC MANN has returned an improved model this term so is fancied to follow up his impressive Kelso success despite taking a 11 lb hike in the weights. Loughermore can also have a say on the back of his Wetherby win while Sidi Ismael is likely to be on the premises too in an open handicap.

  1. ARTIC MANN
  2. LOUGHERMORE (IRE)
  3. SIDI ISMAEL (FR)
