Forecasts

Molly Mischief (5/4), Fiddlers Green (4/1), Conservative (17/2), Bobby Kennedy (10/1), Asense (10/1), Lexington Hero (12/1), Man Of The Sea (16/1), Logistical (28/1), Silver Atom (28/1), Galactic Glow (40/1), Taxiing (40/1), Lookingdandy (50/1), Motasaleeta (100/1), Golden Keeper (125/1)

BOBBY KENNEDY was runner-up at this venue on last year's reappearance from the same mark so he could be the way to go on return from 6 months off. This looks open, with Molly Mischief an obvious threat if transferring her AW form to turf, with Fiddlers Green another to consider.
