Forecasts

Nolton Cross (16/5), Artisan Dancer (4/1), Skye Breeze (9/2), Haku (6/1), Heathen (13/2), Valsad (8/1), Onesmoothoperator (11/1), Andaleep (12/1), Queen Of Ipanema (16/1), Rhythmic Intent (20/1), True Courage (22/1), Sir Chauvelin (50/1), Sonnerie Power (66/1), My Little Queens (125/1)

Lots with chances. Ed Bethell's C&D scorer SKYE BREEZE showed a good attitude when getting up at Newcastle and can complete a quick hat-trick at the chief expense of Artisan Dancer who can also boast a course success and came in a clear runner-up at Wolverhampton last time out. Heathen, Valsad, Nolton Cross and Onesmoothoperator all possess winning form around here too and also need factoring into this highly competitive handicap.
