Forecasts

Mr Carbonator (10/3), Mister Blue (4/1), Cold Harbour (4/1), Straight Ash (6/1), False Id (8/1), Engrave (17/2), Loch Ness Monster (9/1), Contingency Fee (16/1)

COLD HARBOUR has a solid course record and shaped better than the bare result when fourth here recently, so a chance is taken on him in an open-looking contest. Recent C&D scorer Straight Ash also boasts solid claims and the unexposed Mister Blue could take another step forward if he takes to the surface.
