Forecasts

Belisa (11/4), Time To Sea (3/1), Coverham (4/1), Mama Africa (9/2), Mark Of Excellence (5/1), Unonothinjonsnow (10/1), Lovely Acclamation (14/1), Northdown (16/1), Greyjoy (16/1), Pitch High (20/1), Silver Mist (20/1), Madam Prancealot (25/1), Careyanne (25/1)

Not many of these appeal as winners-in-waiting and Silver Mist would have been one of them but for his positive jockey booking. Pitch High showed promise at Beverley last time and could go well, but the one which has the most convincing profile is Belisa who followed three maiden runs with a handicap win and second place last time. She can win this ordinary contest, perhaps at the main expense of Mama Africa, who is better than she showed last time.
