Forecasts

Cobra Kai (15/8), Ramamaras Boy (11/4), Selfish Brian (3/1), Premiership (9/2), Bobby Dalton (15/2), Jungley (11/1), Audit (16/1), Thakuri (40/1)

COBRA KAI has been shaping up well in more competitive events than this, notably when a staying-on third at Beverley last time, so he can open his account if he gets the breaks. Premiership improved on his latest outing and looks the main danger and Selfish Brian, who should strip fitter for his reappearance, may yet have a bigger effort in him.
