Forecasts

Eliza Dolittle (9/4), Rockette (16/5), Time For Tea (4/1), A Little Something (11/2), Set In The West (15/2), Melleray Hill (9/1)

ELIZA DOLITTLE rates the pick of these weights so is fancied to bag a second C&D victory at the chief expense of in-form maiden Time For Tea. Handiicap-debutante Melleray Hill appeals as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.
