Forecasts

Champonelle (5/4), World Soprano (15/8), Grand Oasis (17/2), Smart View (9/1), Velvet Valour (10/1), Bompas (16/1), Super Casanova (18/1), Mayor Of Merrivale (25/1), Mitredat (25/1), War Of Hearts (28/1), Man Of Steel (33/1)

CHAMPONELLE formwise holds a healthy advantage and is up to winning this with something in hand. World Soprano could be the one to capitalise if the selection underperforms, while Velvet Valour is one to bear in mind as well.
