Forecasts

Way Out (5/4), Riskintheground (7/4), Much Too Dear (4/1), Sam's Amour (11/1)

RISKINTHEGROUND disappointed when well backed on his handicap bow at Ludlow 2 weeks ago but is worth another chance back in a maiden. All 3 of his rivals are potential threats, headed by Way Out, who's back down in class.
