Forecasts

Billian (16/5), Babe Alicious (7/2), Toplight (9/2), Griggy (5/1), Nacho (15/2), Kerkyra Island (9/1), Hotter In Time (10/1), Showdiemlad (10/1), Brave Display (10/1), Creek Harbour (12/1), Secret Potion (28/1), Hannah's Return (50/1)

GRIGGY produced one of his better efforts when runner-up at Chelmsford last month and could be the answer if turning up in similar form. Billian and Babe Alicious head the dangers.
