Forecasts

Alpin King (2/1), Do You Love Me (2/1), Noonday Gun (10/3), Citronella (9/2), Beholden (11/2), Let Me Be (20/1), Well Planted (28/1), Bambiraptor (100/1)

ALPIN KING has run creditably in two novice events to date and he's been found an easier assignment here with Ben Curtis booked. The step up in trip could bring out further improvement and he makes plenty of appeal. Do You Love Me will be the biggest danger after a series of solid efforts. Noonday Gun and Citronella are the other two most likely to play a part in the finish.
