Betting

Forecast

Termonator (11/8), Bouncing Bobby (9/2), Kraken Filly (6/1), Will He Dance (6/1), Uccello (9/1), Lochnaver (12/1), City Wanderer (22/1), O'Reilly's Pass (28/1)

In depth

Verdict

Termonator is regularly placed looking to end a long losing but Kraken Filly is still looking for a first win after placing at Hamilton. BOUNCING BOBBY scored back on the Flat at Ayr in April and, having been narrowly beaten at Redcar last time, he gets the vote to confirm running with O'Reilly's Pass. Will He Dance had the measure of Uccello when third at Hamilton and is another to consider.
