Forecasts

Claxton Bay (15/8), Wait And Hope (9/4), Wadacre Icarus (5/1), Juan Solo (7/1), Dandy Sands (9/1), Yeah Nah (18/1)

A chance is taken on Karl Burke handicap newcomer WAIT AND HOPE, who is bred to be a good bit better than an opening mark in the mid-60s. Claxton Bay had lack of stamina as an excuse over 1¼m at Chelmsford last time and is now 3 lb lower than when third at Wolverhampton in November so he's second choice ahead of Juan Solo, the mount of Tom Marquand.
