Forecasts

Hardwired (11/4), Bonnie Kellie (11/4), The Flier Begley (3/1), Young Dev (13/2), Routine Excellence (8/1), Punitive (9/1)

YOUNG DEV is well treated on his best form and should strip fitter for his reappearance, so he's worth chancing to make a winning return to chasing. The Flier Begley is likely to give his running again and Hardwired can't be dismissed.
