Forecasts

Bigtime Bridget (13/8), The African Queen (10/3), Organic (9/2), Expected Arrival (6/1), Springbecamesummer (13/2), Kingmont (8/1), La Fleur Petrus (20/1), Pegasus Of Harry (20/1), Where Is The Love (50/1), Spirit Charmer (100/1), Quick Away (150/1), Potters Diamond (200/1)

Having shaped well when fifth in a potentially useful Kempton novice, EXPECTED ARRIVAL could be the answer with improvement likely now faced with a slightly stiffer test. Next on the list is well-bred newcomer Springbecamesummer, who is marginally second choice ahead of stablemate Bigtime Bridget, a winner over this C&D on her third start last month. The African Queen and Kingmont are others to consider.
