Forecasts

Golden Jeffrey (7/4), Drums Of War (2/1), French Ticket (7/2), Mighty Thunder (8/1), Sense Of Urgency (9/1), Western Lass (12/1), Porto Du Sud (20/1), Bumbles Babe (25/1), Strike Again (66/1)

With the race named after her Grand National winner, Lucinda Russell might just be on to something here with MIGHTY THUNDER, who is related to a bumper winner and could have a nice future ahead of him. Golden Jeffrey has already won one of these and is respected under his penalty, while French Ticket looks a player and on this better ground Sense Of Urgency might be capable of a return to form.
