Forecasts

Collusion (13/8), McCauley's Tavern (3/1), Big Bard (4/1), El Hibri (11/1), Under Curfew (11/1), Heartrate (14/1), Don't Fight It (20/1), Dan Dee Prince (25/1)

It could be worth chancing MCCAULEY'S TAVERN, who goes well around here and has now dipped below his last winning mark. Collusion made a decent start for this yard when fourth at Wolverhampton and is next best ahead of Big Bard.
