Forecasts

Atakan (11/10), Felton Bellevue (3/1), Bal Amie (4/1), Auld Sod (13/2), My Bad Lucy (10/1)

FELTON BELLEVUE took very well to chasing last season and this looks a winnable event on his return. Point-winner My Bad Lucy should do better now upped in trip on handicap/chase bow so may emerge as the biggest threat.
