Forecasts

Douglas Dc (11/10), Ebasari (6/5), I Don't Get It (15/2), The Miser (22/1), Capla Knight (50/1), Guest (150/1)

This looks set to concern the Gordon Elliott-trained pair EBASARI and Douglas Dc. The former was well held in the Fred Winter at the Cheltenham Festival when last seen in March, but is fancied to get back on track with a win now returned to calmer waters following a break.
