Forecasts

Fort Vega (9/2), Moltophino (9/2), Canon's House (11/2), Heavenly Power (8/1), Greek Flower (17/2), Big Gossey (9/1), Goal Exceeded (12/1), Bodhi Bear (12/1), Back Down Under (14/1), Apache Outlaw (14/1), Daamberdiplomat (14/1), Go Athletico (20/1), Gazelle D'or (25/1), Tango Flare (25/1), Dandyville (50/1), Sporting Hero (100/1)

HEAVENLY POWER got right back on the up when finding only Fort Vega too good at Cork a month ago and at the revised weights, he looks a good bet to reverse the form this time. Big Gossey is a pattern-race regular and demands respect back in handicap company.
