Forecasts

Hoke Colburn (7/4), Abbeygrey (9/4), Cernunnos (9/4), Heavenly Promise (9/4), Irish Thistle (9/1)

This will take little winning and Heavenly Promise is the enigma in this as her best has come at Bangor and she has usually needed a couple of runs to come to hand. Nevertheless, she has an experienced rider on board and underfoot conditions to suit if the market indicates she looks ready. Hoke Colburn has a stiff task under his penalty for beating a poor lot last week. He is not one to take a short price about nor is Cernunnos. On the other hand ABBEYGREY goes well fresh and lurks on a dangerous mark if conditions do not prove too quick.
