Forecasts

Lake Chad (3/1), Ernie From Nurney (7/2), Our Bobby (5/1), Killinure Lass (6/1), Farrokh (7/1), Rock On Pedro (7/1), Prince Of Air (7/1), Bite That (10/1), Falcon Park (12/1), Malton Groove (12/1), Duty Bound (16/1), Ben Vrackie (16/1), Blenheim Belle (18/1), Roman Parish (20/1), Mc Alpine (40/1), Elegant Dan (50/1), Donnrua Dream (66/1)

OUR BOBBY opened his chase account at the fourth attempt here last month and a 6 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from repeating the dose. Dual hurdles winner Ernie From Nurney is open to improvement in this sphere and he is second choice, while Farrokh and Killinure Lass are others with appealing claims.
