Forecasts

Hard To Believe (10/11), New Bay Star (10/3), Abundant (7/2), Ohara (11/1), Nicely Timed (12/1), Raise The Stakes (22/1), Ethereal Charm (66/1), Mick From Tipp (66/1), Any Which Way (125/1), Head Girl (300/1)

ABUNDANT produced a promising first effort when second at Kempton and is fancied to one better in a weak novice. Ohara sets the standard on the pick of his form but now resorts to headgear after a couple of disappointing efforts. New Bay Star should do better having been far too green at Yarmouth on debut.
