Forecasts

Chola Empire (6/4), Letmelivemylife (7/2), Double Time (9/2), Give A Little Back (6/1), Buckshaw Village (10/1), Meng Tian (10/1), Bond Boy (14/1), Boafo Boy (14/1), Pinwheel (33/1), Inevitable Outcome (33/1)

GIVE A LITTLE BACK shaped like the best horse at the weights when second at Wolverhampton last month and looks ready to break his duck off a similar mark. Chola Empire continues to hold his form well and rates the main threat, with Meng Tian best of the others.
