Forecasts

Pistol Whipped (11/4), Mill Green (7/2), On The Slopes (7/2), Khage (11/2), Southern Sam (8/1), Some Man (8/1), Rapper (14/1), Witham (66/1)

A tough one to call with the likes of On The Slopes, Khage, and Rapper all going the right way and progressing nicely. However, MILL GREEN has won both his last two starts with a bit in hand and looks capable enough to cope with his double penalty. The selection's stablemate Pistol Whipped is another interesting one to bear in mind for a place in the frame.
