Race preview
Forest Demon looked capable of more when winning on his handicap debut at Kempton last summer, but he does need to prove his effectiveness for testing conditions so MACHO SUN rates a more solid proposition. The son of Camacho posted an improved bid when runner-up on his return in a classified event at Nottingham and that may have put him spot-on. Lunarscape faces a more realistic task than she did in an Ayr Group 3 and is another to consider now entering handicaps off what seems a fair mark.
