Forecasts

Ribkana (10/3), We Still Believe (5/1), Quoteline Direct (5/1), Calcutta Dream (11/2), Gilbert (7/1), Streetscape (7/1), Without Delay (12/1), Skedaddled (16/1), Mekbat (16/1), Great Colaci (25/1), Thomas Cranmer (25/1), Zandora (50/1), Robin Goodfellow (50/1), Lukla (66/1)

A repeat of the form CALCUTTA DREAM showed when runner-up at Yarmouth recently might be good enough to see him go one better this time. Ribkana has shown she can be very competitive off this mark lately and is second choice ahead of Streetscape and Quoteline Direct.
