Forecasts

Pickamix (8/11), Alexander The Grey (11/4), Fadas (3/1), Cracking Find (9/2), West To Crossgales (20/1), Iskabeg Lane (33/1)

Verdict

An interesting little race where Pickamix will rightly be popular with Harry Bannister back on board, while Fadas has perhaps her easiest task in Britain so far and the Sue Smith-trained pair are of interest for different reasons. Nonetheless, the suggestion is ALEXANDER THE GREY, who appeared to relish a step up beyond two miles and decent ground last time and that can prove to be a nice marker towards success today.
  1. Alexander The Grey
  2. Pickamix
  3. Fadas
