Forecasts

Bowfell (1/1), Forest Caper (6/4), Cerelia (10/3), Avalon Mill Mehmas (25/1), Furdy (33/1), Ned Broy (66/1), Power Quest (66/1), Muddy Marvellous (200/1), Cordelin (200/1)

FOREST CAPER has been expensive to follow but his latest second here was his best run yet and the drop in trip should suit if anything. Well-connected newcomer Cerelia is the obvious threat in a novice lacking depth.
