Forecasts

Sabbathical (2/1), Zee Man (10/3), Lessankan (10/3), Fresh New Dawn (4/1), Monty Massini (16/1), Macksville (18/1), Push Ahead (66/1)

Most of these have question marks against them so FRESH NEW DAWN looks the most solid option given he arrives in good nick and jumped better in cheekpieces when fourth at Wincanton last time. Macksville and Lessankan both make their chasing bows but bring potential so look the two to chase him home in that order.
