Forecasts

Gwennie May Boy (5/2), Rewired (11/4), Hidalgo De L'isle (10/3), Barnabas Collins (9/2), Feel The Pinch (7/1), John Betjeman (8/1), Chestnut Pete (28/1), Lookforarainbow (50/1), Imac Wood (80/1)

Verdict

The horse who HIDALGO DE L'ISLE attempted to give lumps of weight to at Sedgefield last time has run well in a listed juvenile event since and Donald McCain's charge looks to be on a workable mark for this handicap debut. Like the selection, Gwennie May Boy has a very much unexposed profile and is feared most ahead of last weekend's Musselburgh runner-up Rewired.

  1. HIDALGO DE L'ISLE (FR)
