Forecasts

Discover Dubai (11/4), Billy Mill (7/2), Riknnah (4/1), Eagle Creek (6/1), If You Dare (8/1), Prince Of Abington (12/1), Eevilynn Drew (12/1), Ford Madox Brown (22/1), Arigato (25/1), Harold Shand (25/1), Spirit Of May (50/1)

RIKNNAH caught the eye at Kempton 2 months ago so she could be ready to resume progress. Eagle Creek won in good style here last time and is a threat along with Billy Mill and Prince of Abington, who can be relied upon to give their running.
