Forecasts

Sports Day (11/4), Stepanov (4/1), Houndswood Willow (11/2), Grindleton (13/2), Mohaab (9/1), Tenison (12/1), Aurelune (16/1), Veld (16/1), Labiche (16/1), Premier Cru (18/1), Lady Lauren (20/1), Thimble (22/1)

SPORTS DAY has taken his form up a notch sent handicapping this season and is weighted to go one better than a recent Yarmouth second. Handicap debutants Stepanov (second choice) and Houndswood Willow look open to progress and rate the main dangers with Veld completing the shortlist.
