Forecasts

Billian (15/8), Beleaguerment (11/4), Too Funky (4/1), Another Angel (6/1), Embla (9/1), Jacquelina (12/1), Axel Jacklin (20/1), Savalas (28/1), Lancashire Life (33/1), Musaytir (66/1), Elf Rising (80/1)

BILLIAN's strike rate is hardy compelling but he is taken to deservedly get his head in front following a string of close calls. Philip Kirby's charge may have most to fear from Embla, who resumed winning ways in a similar event at Southwell recently. Another Angel is best of the rest.
