Forecasts

From The Heart (10/3), High Counsel (7/2), Well Smitten (5/1), Sandy Boy (11/2), Thomas Shelby (15/2), Broadclyst (12/1), Black Anthem (14/1), Raven's Tower (16/1), Ballyegan Hero (28/1), Osca Loca (33/1)

Lots of these have question marks against them, but FROM THE HEART is a notable exception and Philip Hobbs's 7-y-o is fancied to record win number three for the season on the back of his excellent Taunton third after a break. Black Anthem returns from a 7-month absence but has won off a break so rates the chief threat, with High Counsel capable of having a say if in the mood.
