Forecasts

Caldwell Potter (3/1), Rocco Ray (9/2), Katie Tay (13/2), Irish Envoy (7/1), Elle Klassycco (8/1), Ideal De Ciergues (12/1), As Tears Go By (12/1), Nucky Johnson (14/1), Miss Agusta (16/1), Artiste D'ainay (20/1), Absolute Notions (25/1), Make The Plan (25/1), Alden (25/1), Isenay (66/1), Kayce Dutton (66/1), Jumping Susie (125/1)

CALDWELL POTTER was an expensive store and his full brother Mighty Potter (won a bumper) has developed into a smart hurdler this season, so Jamie Codd's mount is a tentative choice to make a winning start. Fellow newcomers Rocco Ray and As Tears Go By (stablemate of the selection) also make plenty of appeal in what could prove to be a hot race.
