Forecasts

Smooth Player (4/7), Hisnameis Mrdevitt (7/1), Kitsilano (8/1), Baltic Moon (17/2), Aslukwoodhavit (10/1), Mastermacblack (14/1), Get Away Babe (14/1), Team Of Firsts (18/1), Ned's Legacy (28/1), Longhouse Star (33/1), Coffee Bay (33/1), Killeemore Lad (66/1), Belper (100/1), May Call You Back (100/1), Champagne Saloon (200/1), Aldworth Court (200/1)

Bumper-winner SMOOTH PLAYER has been knocking on the door over hurdles and this looks a good opportunity for him. Hisnameis Mrdevitt is the obvious threat on form if returning for a new yard on his game, with Team of Firsts dangerous if taking to this.
