Forecasts

Meadram (5/6), Aussie Rascal (9/2), Trevie Fountain (10/1), Sir John Bowdler (11/1), Capla Lass (12/1), Willy Nilly (12/1), Forge Valley Lad (14/1), Capaldi (20/1), Go Oscar Go (22/1), Havana Cabana (125/1)

MEADRAM well and truly left his previous form behind when making a successful handicap debut in a C&D event 3 weeks ago and can go in again after a 3 lb rise. Both of Trevie Fountain's wins have come here and he could be interesting off a low mark if he stays the new trip. Forge Valley Lad is one to note starting out for David Simcock after a year off.
