Forecasts

Molinari (2/1), Innse Gall (7/2), Detective (7/2), Zimmerman (6/1), Heights Of Abraham (8/1), Blistering Barney (16/1), The Nu Form Way (20/1), Flying Moon (33/1)

C&D winner MOLINARI arrives on the up and is fancied to bag a third success of 2022 at the chief expense of The Nu Form Way who made a winning start for Stella Barclay at Chester last month. C&D winner Innse Gall needs factoring in too in an open handicap.
