Forecasts

Global Asset (13/8), Berkshire Nugget (10/3), Great Chieftain (9/2), Marmaduke Lemon (5/1), Sheila's Paradise (8/1), Kindest Nation (12/1), Ihopeyoulike (22/1), Stratocracy (33/1), Never Fear (33/1)

GLOBAL ASSET resumed with an excellent Windsor second and can go one better now and open his account at the chief expense of Great Chieftain, who also arrives on the back of a good runner-up finish at Nottingham. Berkshire Nugget and Sheila's Paradise also need factoring in.
