Forecasts

Dark Kris (13/8), Marchetti (6/1), Rivas Rob Roy (13/2), Chloellie (13/2), Fact Or Fable (17/2), Broughtons Peace (9/1), Pollinate (11/1), Well Prepared (12/1), Miss Elsa (14/1), Shadow Angel (16/1), Chetan (20/1), On The Nose (100/1)

DARK KRIS was impressive here in February and, while not quite in the same form at Wolverhampton next time, he's worth a chance to get back to winning ways with his stable thriving. Broughtons Peace and Pollinate are the main dangers.
