Forecasts

Hahadi (6/4), Out For Justice (11/4), Joly Maker (13/2), Orsino (15/2), Kapsize (10/1), Ocean Voyage (14/1), Grand Coureur (14/1), Begoodtoyourself (18/1), Mackie Dee (18/1), Enforcement (28/1), Mr Jim (50/1), Ifandabut (66/1), Centreofexcellence (80/1), Midnight Owle (80/1), Sea Destination (150/1), Dun Bay Creek (150/1)

HAHADI looked better than ever after 6 months off when making a winning start for this yard in a handicap hurdle at Southwell10 days ago. He still must prove he's as good over fences but is clearly interesting off a lower chase mark here. Joly Maker hinted at a revival when third at Market Rasen, while Kapsize is another who's potentially well handicapped starting out for an in-form yard.
