Forecasts

Hermes Boy (3/1), Mack The Man (10/3), Natural History (11/2), Volkovka (13/2), Zambezi Fix (15/2), McGowan's Pass (10/1), Navajo Pass (10/1), Hydroplane (25/1)

Verdict

HERMES BOY is going the right way and seems to have been allotted a fair mark for his handicap debut, so he's preferred to Volkovka, who is in a rich vein of form. Mack The Man's reappearance victory at Exeter is backed up by the time, so he could also make his presence felt if he's in the same mood.

  1. HERMES BOY (FR)
  2. VOLKOVKA (FR)
  3. MACK THE MAN (IRE)
