Forecasts

Stanage (6/5), New Chelsea (6/4), Perennial (13/2), Fior Di Bosco (12/1), Amongst The Stars (66/1), Throne Of Glory (100/1)

Having finished second off 84 in a handicap at Haydock last time, NEW CHELSEA sets a good standard and should be able to open his account this time. Stanage is a danger if he can take another step forward and debut winner Perennial needs respecting.
