Forecast: 6/4 On The Fringe, 9/2 Wonderful Charm, 6/1 Ask The Weatherman, 12/1 Paint The Clouds, 14/1 Sweet As A Nut, 16/1 Pacha Du Polder, 20/1 Aupcharlie, 20/1 Grand Jesture, 25/1 Grand Vision, 25/1 Black Thunder, 25/1 Minella For Value, 25/1 Anseanachai Cliste, 25/1 Warden Hill, 33/1 Salsify, 33/1 Dolatulo, 33/1 Barel Of Laughs, 33/1 Lets Get Serious, 33/1 Balnaslow, 33/1 Buckers Bridge, 50/1 Pentiffic, 50/1 Current Event, 50/1 Mendip Express, 50/1 Premier Portrait, 66/1 Cottage Oak

Tip – On The Fringe won this race 12 months ago and will most definitely be quite a short priced favourite for this race and has a good chance however plenty of horses finished close behind and offer much better value from an each-way perspective.  Paint The Clouds finished 1 length behind and is currently 12/1 – Current Event finished 2 lengths behind and is 50/1 – Pacha Du Polder finished 2 1/2 lengths behind and is 16/1 Aupcharlie finished  4 lengths behind and is 20/1 so these horses all finished within 5 lengths of the current 7/4 favourite and offer some sort of value from an each-way perspective.
