Forecasts

Katheefa (7/2), Zylan (4/1), Alsvinder (11/2), Equidae (6/1), Wasntexpectingthat (13/2), Storm Over (15/2), Requinto Dawn (9/1), Bellevarde (22/1), Shackabooah (22/1)

ZYLAN didn't have a great deal to spare when scoring over C&D last time but, with the form having received a boost since, he still makes plenty of appeal bidding to follow up from a 4 lb higher mark. Requinto Dawn is feared most ahead of Storm Over.
