Forecasts

Beauzon (1/1), Pablo Del Pueblo (5/1), Expert Opinion (11/2), Lilkian (9/1), Neptune Legend (10/1), Big Bard (12/1), Big Time Maybe (12/1), Nordic Glory (20/1)

EXPERT OPINION's losing run is mounting up but he's operating from an attractive-looking mark as a result and, having gone close on a couple of occasions for his present stable this winter, he could just be worth chancing to put it all together. Beauzon comes here in good order and may emerge as the chief threat, ahead of Pablo del Pueblo.
