Betting Forecast: EVENS Persian Force (IRE), 7-2 Holguin (GB), Sierra Blanca (IRE), 10-1 Indian Renegade (IRE)
Race Summary: A facinating minor event, and none of the quartet can be discounted. PERSIAN FORCE ran to a useful level in a good time to make a winning debut at Doncaster 7 weeks ago and he sets a high standard for his 3 rivals to aim at. Holguin’s debut win leaves him with something to find, but interestingly the stable started off its subsequent Coventry winner in the same race and he could be open to plenty of improvement. Irish-raider/newcomer Sierra Blanca could easily be out of the ordinary as well.
