Forecasts

Oxford Don (5/4), Wedding Breakfast (11/4), Major Cornwallis (3/1), Lightly Squeeze (13/2), Secret Salvage (14/1)

There would be few in here you would like to rely on and it is easier to build a case against these runners. OXFORD DON has done least wrong and at least appears to be progressing but he would not be one to take a short price on. Major Cornwallis may only have to run to his modest BHA rating to make the frame whilst the temperamental Wedding Breakfast still makes more appeal than Secret Salvage.
