Forecasts

Tea Time On Mars (5/2), Ballinslea Bridge (11/4), Acaro (3/1), Triple Chief (9/2), Broughtons Rhythm (9/1), The Mighty Ash (16/1)

Tea Time On Mars remains of interest here, but whether he will have the speed to make a successful drop in trip of almost a mile remains to be seen. Acaro, Broughtons Rhythm and Triple Chief all have the form to get closely involved, but all also have vulnerable profiles. Therefore, it might be worth chancing that BALLINSLEA BRIDGE is ship-shape after his recent return from a long absence. If that's the case, despite conceding lumps of weight, he could outclass this field.
