Forecasts

Pockley (6/4), Never Dark (7/2), Kim Wexler (9/2), Bethersden Boy (5/1), Second Collection (13/2), Lynns Boy (7/1), Repartee (11/1), Lihou (11/1), Politics (12/1), Autumn Flight (14/1), The Daley Express (33/1)

A few with chances but it is worth siding with POLITICS, who is better than his recent form figures suggest and could take a big step forward on his first run for Mick Appleby off a reduced mark. Course winner Second Collection is feared most ahead of Never Dark, who wasn't seen to best effect at Newcastle last time.
