Forecasts

Fox Trotter (10/3), Hedging (7/2), Berkshire Boy (4/1), Operative (6/1), Here's Two (6/1), Sir Billy Wright (10/1), Archie (14/1), Outer Space (18/1), Wahaab (20/1), Nightingale Valley (20/1), Alqalsar (50/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken that the visor will have a positive effect on BERKSHIRE BOY who is on the same mark as when beating similar company here last year on soft ground. Operative is up to a trip which looks likely to suit, but Fox Trotter may need a stiffer test. Hedging should step up on his last run with the cheekpieces refitted, whilst Sir Billy Wright goes well fresh and can go close despite topweight.
  1. Berkshire Boy
  2. Operative
  3. Sir Billy Wright
