Forecasts

Bowman (10/3), Redarna (7/2), Carnival Zain (6/1), Rory (13/2), Yermanthere (7/1), Oso Rapido (17/2), Rough Diamond (9/1), Jkr Cobbler (10/1), Danielsflyer (14/1), Phoenix Fire (16/1)

Having fallen to an appealing mark, OSO RAPIDO was narrowly denied at Pontefract last time and, if he can back that up, he can go one better. Redarna is an obvious threat and Bowman should give another good account of himself.
