Forecasts
Indomeneo (5/2), Glorious Player (9/2), We Are The World (5/1), Benadalid (6/1), Narcos (7/1), Starlight Mystery (15/2), Jo's Girl (12/1), Emerald Rocket (16/1), Sheriff (28/1)
Several of these look high enough in the weights, including Starlight Mystery, Indomeneo and Narcos, who represent leading Northern stables. With that in mind, it may pay to row in with GLORIOUS PLAYER, who is having his first run in a handicap after three fair efforts over shorter on the AW. Jo's Girl looks a live danger after her win at Pontfract, while Benadalid ran well at Haydock last time and has an each-way chance if handling this faster ground.
- Glorious Player
- Jo's Girl
- Benadalid
