Forecasts

Eligible (3/1), Feel The Need (10/3), Dembe (7/2), Lessay (7/2), Hitched (13/2), Onslow Gardens (22/1), First Kiss (33/1), Risen Again (40/1), Cosmos Raj (50/1), Show Biz Kid (66/1)

Verdict

If FEEL THE NEED is in the same form as when winning here a couple of weeks ago a 4 lb rise may not prevent him going in again. Hitched had his winning run ended when third to the selection here last time but it was another good run and he's likely to figure prominently again. The shortlist is completed by First Kiss, a possible improver in handicaps for new trainer Ollie Sangster.
