Forecasts

Ashjan (11/4), Just Call Me Al (9/2), Aire Valley Lad (6/1), Largy Fix (13/2), Mustang Alpha (7/1), Lamanver Storm (15/2), Holme Abbey (11/1), Who's The Guv'nor (14/1), Henry Brown (25/1), Black Market (50/1)

JUST CALL ME AL has enjoyed a good campaign over hurdles/fences and can make it a fourth win of the season with his stable going well. His 3 victories have all come at Sedgefield, but he was runner-up in a novice handicap chase here (2m) in December. He is preferred to Aire Valley Lad and Ashjan, who should both appreciate the drop back in grade.
