Forecasts

Ardmayle (4/1), Georgieshore (4/1), Dark Invader (5/1), Chandos Belle (11/2), Dragon Khan (17/2), Hartside (10/1), Sporty Yankee (12/1), Tactical Manoeuvre (12/1), The Blue Bomber (14/1), Hear The Chimes (14/1), Handsome Sam (20/1), What's Up Rory (25/1), Kayf Charmer (33/1), Johnny Yuma (40/1), Ice Konig (80/1)

Verdict

Dark Invader is a likely improver now sent handicapping for the first time and the booking of the champion jockey boosts the notion he can go well. Hear The Chimes could be up to running a big race in conditions that will suit on a handy mark while Dragon Khan is another potentially well-handicapped sort on third start for this yard with a notable jockey booking. Hartside has toyed with the notion of running well this season and cannot be ruled out but a chance can be taken on ARDMAYLE. He took a few runs last season to get up to speed before notching a double over fences. He's shown some signs in three runs this season he can win over hurdles and his dropping mark is aided now by Josh Newman's 7lb claim, ensuring the lightly-raced six-year-old has a chance in this field.
  1. Ardmayle
