Forecasts

Carnwennan (7/2), Stargazer (7/2), Island Brave (7/2), Notation (11/2), Who Dares Wins (13/2), Rare Groove (10/1), Cosmelli (11/1), Jedhi (33/1)

CARNWENNAN wasn't seen to best effect at Wolverhampton 6 weeks ago and is worth another chance off a workable mark. There wasn't much between Who Dares Wins and Stargazer when placed at Wolverhampton recently and they head the dangers.
