Forecasts

Watchdog (15/8), King Victorious (3/1), Surgeon Commander (3/1), Grey Horizon (7/1), A Boy Named Mary (11/1), He Bangs The Drums (22/1), Mademoiselle Belle (28/1), Go Kylie Go (33/1)

WATCHDOG turns out before a 4 lb rise for last week's 7f Southwell second kicks in and should prove hard to beat if in similar form. King Victorious seems to be getting his act together and is second choice ahead of Catterick winner Grey Horizon.
