Forecasts

Nordic Tiger (11/10), Roccovango (3/1), Goblet Of Fire (5/1), King William Rufus (11/2), Orchestra (8/1), It's A Love Thing (10/1), Quian (22/1), Bluegrass (25/1), Thorpeness (33/1)

Cases can be made for quite a few, but it was hard not to be impressed by NORDIC TIGER'S manner of victory at Wincanton last week and he's hard to get away from given he escapes a penalty for that success. Goblet of Fire and Orchestra are a pair of interesting handicap debutants, and they head the opposition.
