Forecasts

De Name Escapes Me (2/1), Kavanaghs Corner (9/2), Nobody Home (13/2), Hear No Evil (7/1), Se Mo Laoch (7/1), Tesseract (10/1), My Manekineko (12/1), Wishmoor (14/1), Sunrise Lady (20/1), Hilltop Supreme (25/1)

HEAR NO EVIL shaped much better on his second start back from 12 months off when sixth at Haydock in December and is potentially on a good mark back over fences tackling a veterans' event for the first time. Kavanaghs Corner arrives on the back of a couple of good placed efforts so needs considering, while Nobody Home responded well to this headgear when going close at Fairyhouse.
