Forecasts

Badri (11/4), The Bell Conductor (9/2), Pockley (5/1), Venturous (5/1), Dandy Dinmont (13/2), Nelson Gay (11/1), Bergerac (16/1), Water Of Leith (20/1), May Sonic (22/1)

Verdict

VENTUROUS finished strongly when second over C&D last time and he's fancied to reverse the form with Badri, who also merits plenty of respect. Pockley, another recent C&D winner, is the main danger.

  1. Venturous5/1
  2. Pockley5/1
  3. Badri11/4
