Forecasts

Cougar Kid (15/8), Kalaskadesemilley (4/1), Don't Act Up (9/2), Does It In Style (5/1), Georgieshore (5/1), Methag (9/1), Visage Blanc (12/1), Karl Marx (20/1), Norse Castle (33/1), Lost In Newyork (33/1)

Lost In Newyork would be of some interest if the market speaks for him given the very useful 10lb claimed, but after such a long time off he may well need this and preference is for DON'T ACT UP on his handicap debut, despite topweight. Kalaskadesemilley is interesting on his second run for Johnny Farrelly, while Cougar Kid is an obvious danger after success last time and Karl Marx might do much better after a recent pipe-opener.
