Forecasts

River Wharfe (9/4), Hawajes (3/1), Tres Chic (4/1), Heer's Sadie (17/2), Sir Titan (9/1), Rebel Redemption (10/1), Gonzaga (10/1), Clear Aim (12/1), Danehill Star (20/1)

TRES CHIC returned to somewhere near her best form when fourth at Leicester last month and gets the nod in the finale. Hawajes and River Wharfe can also make their presence felt.
