Forecasts

Clashaniska (13/8), Lady Mander (5/1), Astrophysics (13/2), Quarter Blue (7/1), Diamond Cottage (15/2), Secret Potion (9/1), We're Reunited (10/1), Tawaafoq (22/1), More Than Likely (40/1), Lili Wen Fach (66/1), Gordonontheorgan (100/1), Babyduke (125/1)

It could be worth chancing QUARTER BLUE, who caught the eye when fourth over this C&D on her return last month. Clashaniska made a positive start for this yard when going close over C&D last week and is next best ahead of the veteran Astrophysics.
