Forecasts

Easy Love (11/8), Katie's Melody (2/1), Betty's Tiara (9/2), Pottersville (17/2), Kilworth (20/1), Only Gossip (25/1)

Progressive in bumpers last season and successful on hurdle debut earlier in the year, EASY LOVE looks the one to beat following her third in a Cheltenham novice last month. Hurdle debutante Katie's Melody steps up in trip and looks the main danger in receipt of weight, while the consistent Betty's Tiara should give her running back in a novice.
