Forecasts

Low Expectations (6/5), Locked Down Lad (3/1), Miss Kassiopi (6/1), Brave Move (8/1), Gone In Sixty (14/1), Graham (14/1), D'gesteevo (14/1), Needtoknow (18/1), House Of Habsburg (18/1), Arctic Stream (50/1)

LOCKED DOWN LAD has made a good start to his handicap career and can get his head in front, perhaps at the expense of last-time-out Fontwell scorer Low Expectations. Fergal O'Brien's Brave Move also makes the shortlist.
