Forecasts

Enemy At The Gate (6/4), Call Me Harry (9/4), Ballin Bay (10/3), Beat The Retreat (9/2), Firth Of Forth (5/1), Hidden Commander (6/1), Boomslang (7/1), High On The Hill (100/1)

CALL ME HARRY confirmed previous promise over hurdles when getting the better of one operating at the top if their game at Musselburgh 3 weeks ago and he could just be worth siding with to come out on top again now he's found his feet. Enemy At The Gate and Beat The Retreat, who rates a likely improver on handicap debut, head up the dangers.
