Forecasts

Harry Did (2/1), Roaring Ralph (9/2), Blackjack (9/2), Whats In The Bag (11/2), Westmorian (13/2), Bellagio Man (11/1), Biplane (16/1), South Shore (50/1)

HARRY DID didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Kempton last time out and can capitalise on a 1 lb lower mark here. Bellagio Man also wasn't seen to ideal effect when a recent C&D third so rates a big danger, while others to consider in a competitive sprint are Whats In The Bag, Roaring Ralph and Blackjack.
