DECLARED RUNNERS 9

Raceform Median Time: 1 min 30.50 secs

2022: MARBAAN 2 9 11 Shane Kelly 10-11 (Charlie Fellowes) 12 ran

Stewards Note: TRAVOLTA: Following its run on 24/6/2023 it was reported that the horse hung left-handed under pressure.

Betting Forecast: 11-10 Hot Fuss (IRE), 11-2 Mafnood (GB), 17-2 Cool Dividend (IRE), 10-1 Travolta (GB), 11-1 Mortlake (IRE), 16-1 Harvard Sound (IRE), 28-1 Solar Power (GB), 40-1 The Ferret (GB), 100-1 Head’s Gone Pal (GB)

Race Summary: HOT FUSS ran a blinder in the Chesham and probably won’t need to match that level of form to open his account at the third attempt. Mafnood is worth considering following a positive start and Breeze-Up recruit Cool Dividend has the potential to be above average, so he’s one to monitor in the betting.
