Forecasts

The Cob (11/4), Wbee (11/4), Small Present (4/1), Skatman (4/1), Moon King (5/1), Starsky (11/2), Big Bad Bear (12/1), Sultans Pride (22/1), Sammylou (40/1)

Impossible to rule any of these out so at the likely odds it could be worth chancing BIG BAD BEAR. He went well for a long way before fading into third on return at Musselburgh earlier this month and, having dropped 2 lb below his last winning mark, Nicky Richards' course winner gets the vote. Wbee is chasing an impressive 5-timer so he's feared most on reappearance, ahead of Starsky.
