Forecasts

Songo (5/2), Lady Reset (3/1), Miss Mulligan (4/1), Placated (11/2), Liberated Lad (6/1), Elham Valley (8/1), Triple Nickle (10/1), Tralee Hills (12/1), Keep It Brief (20/1)

TRALEE HILLS comes here in good nick and has been dropped a very handy 2 lb for his good recent Lingfield fifth so is fancied to follow up last year's win in this event. There are plenty of dangers though, headed by Salsibur-second Lady Reset, with stylish Yarmouth scorer Placated also firmly in the picture in a competitive handicap.
