Forecast Prices: Boilermaker 9/4, Darn Hot Dame 3/1, Semper Femina 6/1, Aukus 5/1, Blackisthenewblack 8/1, Flash Kozo 14/1, La Peregrina 16/1, Celestarak 16/1
oddschecker Verdict
Aukus produced her best effort so far when third at Windsor and she has to be of interest on her handicap bow. Semper Femina finished second here over 1m2f last week, although whether she wants an extra couple of furlongs remains to be seen. With that in mind, BOILERMAKER gets the vote. Harry Charlton's gelding has improved for stepping up in trip with each handicap start and his recent runner-up effort at Thirsk gives him every chance of going one better.
Prediction: 1st Boilermaker, 2nd Aukus, 3rd Semper Femina
