Forecasts

Hill Spirit (2/1), Ravanelli (3/1), Suleiman Artist (16/5), Aire Spray (5/1), Mapogo (13/2), She's Notjoeking (8/1), Just Oot (22/1), Simba's Roar (100/1)

HILL SPIRIT showed plenty to work on when third at Huntingdon and looks the one to beat in a weak bumper. Suleiman Artist and Mapogo both failed to meet expectations first-time out but are clearly thought capable of better.
