Forecasts

Glint Of An Eye (15/8), Eltham Palace (5/2), Captain St Lucifer (4/1), Winter Snowdrop (11/1), Beyond Infinity (14/1), Essgee Nics (14/1), Clipsham Tiger (16/1), Paradise On Earth (40/1)

GLINT OF AN EYE finally got her head in front over C&D last month and she can follow up off just a 3 lb higher mark. Eltham Palace is consistent and should go close. Winter Snowdrop won here back in October and she may come on for her reappearance at Yarmouth last month.
