Forecasts

Able Kane (10/3), Mitrosonfire (7/2), Nelson Gay (7/2), Hello Me (7/2), Treacherous (13/2), Capote's Dream (8/1), A Sure Welcome (9/1), Punchbowl Flyer (12/1), El Hibri (20/1)

MITROSONFIRE enjoyed a productive campaign last summer and remains on a fair mark after his recent Nottingham victory, so is taken to follow up in a competitive event. Treacherous catches the eye at the weights, whilst Hello Me and Nelson Gay are also strong contenders.
