Forecasts

Mohi (11/4), Kingboard Star (16/5), Kit Gabriel (4/1), Poet (6/1), Golden Rainbow (15/2), Big Boy Harley (9/1), Ellade (10/1), Mercurial (22/1), Final Account (22/1), Costa Adeje (25/1), Lady Ayresome (28/1)

A case can be made for a few of these, but Ed Walker has his string in good nick and his KINGBOARD STAR shaped as though this return to 6f would really suit when fifth at Haydock so gets the nod. Both Mohi and Kit Gabriel arrive on the back of recent victories over C&D and at Pontefract respectively and are greatly feared in a competiitve nursery, while Big Boy Harley is another for the shortlist.
