Forecasts

Brandon Castle (6/4), Northwest Frontier (3/1), Vindicator (4/1), Donnachies Girl (13/2), Sebastian's Wish (14/1), An Fear Ciuin (16/1), Braes Of Lochalsh (20/1), Corton Lad (50/1), Gworn (50/1)

Verdict

A fascinating staying event with quite a few outcomes possible but such was the dominance of BRANDON CASTLE at Chester on Saturday (won by 15L) that he’s hard to ignore here under a 6lb penalty and it may only be a quick return to the track that stops him. Sebastian’s Wish is now away from his beloved Musselburgh and back after a short break but has to be respected as does the improving Vindicator. Northwest Frontier has yet to win a handicap but clearly has one in him and can be forgiven his York run last time out with Donnachies Girl looking held off this mark but worth a her place in the field.
  1. Brandon Castle
  2. Vindicator
  3. Sebastian's Wish
