Forecasts

Come On Girl (11/4), Morning Shadow (9/2), Hey Ho Let's Go (6/1), Comeatchoo (6/1), Clashaniska (9/1), Aguerooo (11/1), Catapult (14/1), Amnaa (16/1), Porto Ferro (16/1), Mont Kiara (22/1), Stopdworldnletmeof (33/1), Giovanni Tiepolo (40/1)

COME ON GIRL has been in good order and fared as well as could be expected from out of the weights at this course last time, so she's fancied to capitalise on a return to a more realistic grade. Hey Ho Let's Go shaped well in second at Kempton last time and is regarded as the main threat ahead of Comeatchoo.
