Forecasts

Blueflagflyinghigh (3/1), Zara's Return (10/3), Dog Fox (4/1), V Twelve (15/2), Therapist (8/1), Serengeti Sunset (9/1), Niarbyl Bay (10/1), Wintercrack (25/1), Total Lockdown (40/1)

The vote in this competitive handicap goes to V TWELVE, who was successful at Windsor off 1 lb higher on his sole previous start over this trip and, judged on this season's efforts at around 1½m, dropping back to this distance could be just the ticket. Despite his odds-on failure when bidding for the hat-trick last time, Dog Fox remains of interest and is second choice ahead of recent Ripon winner Blueflagflyinghigh. Sandown 1-2 Zara's Return and Serengeti Sunset need considering, too.
