Forecasts
Boric (5/2), Fact Of The Matter (4/1), Henri Parry Morgan (5/1), Mercers Court (6/1), Brian Boranha (7/1), Easy Street (8/1), Red Giant (8/1)
A disappointing numerical turnout for the feature race of the year at Sedgefield. However, the 2018 Durham National remains competitive, and features some grand old stayers, perhaps none more so than the 2017 Highlands National (Perth) winner Boric who went agonisingly close behind the well backed Audacious Plan in this race in 2017. Easy Street arrives in excellent order, and with the ground conditions to suit, but equally he's not the type to have on your side during a protracted battle, so is opposed on that score alone. Therefore, the obvious pick is the revitalised MERCERS COURT (8-26 over fences). He could have plenty more too offer over a marathon trip.
