Forecasts

Brooklyn Nine Nine (1/2), Lord Abama (7/2), Al Najada (15/2), Rubellite (11/1), William Dewhirst (16/1), Dan De Man Can (25/1), Azaim (33/1), Leap Day (50/1), Heer He Goes (80/1)

BROOKLYN NINE NINE showed plenty when second at Beverley and York last season and should prove hard to beat in what is a weak class 3. Lord Abama was placed a few times in Ireland and can make the frame again for his new yard, while Rubellite should know more this time having been far too green at Southwell.
