Forecasts

Overlooked (4/1), Cable Beach (4/1), Von Krolock (4/1), Aim For The Bull (8/1), Strobelight (17/2), Sir Maxi (9/1), Supernova Steps (9/1), A Pint Of Bear (12/1), Sirius White (14/1), Bad Habits (16/1), Saved Lizzie (28/1), Sharp Call (33/1), The Cola Brasil (80/1), Inconspicuous (80/1)

VON KROLOCK opened his account for James Owen in a change of headgear at Wolverhampton last time and can build on it to defy a 3 lb rise. Cable Beach heads the list of dangers on the back of his recent C&D success, although Strobelight, Sir Maxi and Bad Habits can all have a say too in this competitive event.
