Forecasts

Roman Crown (30/100), Twenty Bob (9/4), Lovealot Bear (7/2), Marmaduke Lemon (12/1), Aye Fred (33/1), Ruth Langmore (33/1), Kipp Kelly (33/1), Metal Beau (100/1), Mr Tibbs (125/1), Ashford Hill (200/1)

Eve Johnson Houghton's Mehmas colt ROMAN CROWN looked a useful prospect when going in at the first time of asking over C&D and is hard to oppose in a novice where lots arrive with a question mark against them. Recent Kempton scorer Lovealot Bear appeals as the one to chase him home, with the returning Twenty Bob also in the picture for minor honours.
