Forecasts

Stone Mason (2/1), Fair Man (7/2), Notion Of Time (7/1), Critique (15/2), Lady Of York (9/1), Beat The Breeze (10/1), Red Gunner (11/1), Winter Snowdrop (14/1), Halfacrown (18/1), Mdina (22/1), Archdeacon (25/1), Luxford (28/1), Island Flame (50/1), Muraaqeb (50/1), Medika (66/1), Casablanca Kid (150/1)

FAIR MAN is a lightly-raced 3-y-o for a yard that has been prolific at this venue during 2020. He has been steadily improving all year and can finally get off the mark against mostly exposed sorts. Winter Snowdrop finally got off the mark at Yarmouth last time and she can't be ruled out under her good-value apprentice. Stone Mason has place claims with De Sousa in the saddle.
