Forecasts

Desertmore Hill (2/1), Cry Fury (9/2), Alottarain (6/1), Antiphony (8/1), Romeo Is Bleeding (9/1), Primo Rossi (10/1), Norse Light (11/1), Lightentertainment (20/1), Twister Mix (33/1)

Not many of these can be backed with any great confidence, but top weight Antiphony ran respectably over C&D last time and any improvement would give him sound claims. Cases can be made for Desertmore HIll and Primo Rossi on their chasing debuts, but the one to be on could be CRY FURY, who shaped well over C&D on his chasing debut despite being hampered a couple of times and should improve.
