Forecasts

Ri Na Cuirte (5/2), Craven Bay (7/2), Fortuna Ligna (4/1), Heaven Smart (9/2), Wearapinkribbon (10/1), Ben Lilly (14/1), San Pedro (16/1), Endersen (50/1), Spotty Dog (80/1), Kingston Kid (100/1)

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and CRAVEN BAY is fancied to defy another 4 lb rise in the weights and go 3-3 for Toby Lawes. Cartmel runner-up Fortuna Ligna appeals as the one to chase him home ahead of Heaven Smart and Ri Na Cuirte.
