Forecasts

Washington Heights (2/1), Braveheart Boy (3/1), Shine's Ambition (7/2), Devil's Kingdom (12/1), Have Secret (14/1), Eagle Prince (14/1), Zerbinetta (16/1), Glory Call (28/1), Wildfell (28/1), Candidates (33/1), Paris Jet (50/1), Noble Majesty (66/1), Smile And Pay (100/1)

It could be worth siding with BRAVEHEART BOY, who shaped nicely on debut at Redcar and can be excused his subsequent run at Carlisle. Washington Heights won last time and is sure to be popular, while Shine's Ambition is another key form player for all stall 12 may be an issue.
