Forecasts

Kopa Kilana (1/2), Ez Tiger (7/4), Play Pretend (7/2), Mix Of Clover (5/1), Zafaan (5/1)

KOPA KILANA is a long-standing maiden over hurdles but there's a good chance that will soon change having joined Olly Murphy and he's taken to strike at the first time of asking for his new trainer. Ez Tiger saw off a next-time-out winner over C&D last month and can give the selection most to do.
