Forecasts

Ever So Much (5/2), Duty Girl (3/1), Emirat De Catana (4/1), Motaraabet (9/2), Court Baloo (5/1), Missthecuddles (15/2), Maison D'Or (8/1), Ash Park (9/1), Border Victor (12/1), Onlyfoolsownhorses (12/1), Lawtop Legend (16/1), Saint Jude (22/1), Little Millie (33/1)

It's hard to recommend EVER SO MUCH with complete conviction given that he has two ways of running. However, if in the same mood as when winning well back over hurdles at Cartmel 10 days ago he'll take plenty of stopping under a penalty. Emirat de Catana clearly possesses ability but bigger threats may be posed by Duty Girl and Maison d'Or.
