Forecasts

Survivors Sister (5/2), Run For Cover (11/4), Miss Lia (7/2), Onefortheditch (5/1), Forceonmyown (13/2), Cathryns Ruby (10/1), Lady Bluebird (25/1), Atomic Queen (25/1), Love Like This (25/1), Gangster Granny (50/1)

MISS LIA has produced 2 really good efforts since refitted with cheekpieces and is taken to get her head back in front. Cathryn's Rub, the hat-trick seeking Run For Cover and Gordon Elliott handicap newcomer Forceonmyown head the dangers in a competitive finale.
