Forecasts

Nightboattoclyro (3/1), Good Boy Bobby (18/5), Albert's Back (4/1), Miah Grace (13/2), Midnight Shadow (7/1), West To The Bridge (15/2), No Comment (12/1), En Meme Temps (22/1), Secrete Stream (66/1)

Verdict

A cracking handicap but it would be madness to side against NIGHTBOATTOCLYRO who remains unbeaten for Sam Drinkwater and had a fair bit left in the tank when a ready scorer at Chepstow last month. No Comment is without a win since 2017 but went down by the narrowest of margins at Hereford and is weighted to have a big say again. Hat-trick seeking Albert's Back is not ruled out easily either.

  1. NIGHTBOATTOCLYRO
  2. NO COMMENT
  3. ALBERT'S BACK
