Forecasts

Western Beat (3/1), Isle of Wolves (16/5), Trailblazer (10/3), Havana Party (15/2), Broctune Red (11/1), Heatherdown Hero (11/1), Alhabor (18/1), Fifty Sent (22/1), Her Way (25/1), Oriental Lilly (28/1), Bright Dawn (150/1)

ISLE OF WOLVES fluffed his lines at Southwell last time but is worth another chance having looked ready to strike on his previous outing. Heatherdown Hero is a on a fair mark starting out for a new yard and is another to consider, with Trailblazer and Western Beat best of the others.
