Forecasts

General Girling (9/2), Riddlestown (9/2), Leith Hill Legasi (5/1), Try It Sometime (11/2), Thady Quil (11/2), Kapricorne (6/1), Gibbstown (9/1), Have A Go Hero (10/1), In The Tub (16/1), The Clyda Rover (25/1)

Very poor fayre on offer here. Kapricorne could show up well from bottom weight, but at the other end of the scale RIDDLESTOWN might prove up to the task of defying a penalty now that he has rediscovered some form. Have A Go Hero is another of interest, along with General Girling.
