Forecasts

Don't Rightly Know (8/11), Country Lady (11/4), Queen Annie (3/1), Jersey Gem (13/2), Baby Shally (9/1), Musique De Fee (28/1), Astro Annie (50/1), Seasmoke (100/1)

DON'T RIGHTLY KNOW has clearly been difficult to train but won in good style in similar conditions at Exeter last month and may be able to defy a penalty. Queen Annie and Country Lady look the obvious dangers.
