Forecasts

Al Muqdad (11/4), Naepoint (10/3), Havanarama (4/1), War Chant (4/1), Bigbertiebassett (5/1), Copper And Five (8/1), Paris Lights (10/1), Summa Peto (22/1)

David O'Meara's AL MUQDAD is proving a likeable sort and taken to complete a quick hat-trick after his gutsy recent course success. Hugo Palmer's Havanarama rates a big threat though off a handy-looking mark. with handicap-debutant Naepoint and Nottingham-victor War Chant also firmly in the picture.
