Forecasts

Nina The Terrier (9/4), Speech Bubble (7/2), Corey's Courage (5/1), Runwiththetide (6/1), Holly Hartingo (13/2), Tweed Skirt (7/1), Sabrina (9/1), Nextdoortoalice (10/1), Good Look Charm (10/1), Largy G (14/1), Walk In Clover (16/1), Marsh Wren (16/1), Moonamacaroona (18/1), Gentle Connections (20/1), Lady Tremaine (25/1), The Player Queen (33/1)

An opening handicap mark of 117 could underestimate the unbeaten COREY'S COURAGE who can take her career record to 5-5. Speech Bubble has clear top weight but it's merited given that she gave recent Cheltenham Festival winner Love Envoi something to think about in a Sandown Grade 2 last time and she's feared most. Holly Hartingo, who will be suited by the step back up in trip, and the Paul Nicholls-trained Sabrina also make the shortlist.
