Forecasts

Fountains Blenhein (5/6), Pottersville (13/8), Firm But Fair (9/2), Assertive Walk (13/2), Ignore The Door (16/1)

POTTERSVILLE looked a useful novice in the making when dotting up in a mares' novice at Exeter in November and she is taken to follow up against the boys here. Assertive Walk has been absent since his promising bumper third on debut at Chepstow, but he is interesting nonetheless and shades preference ahead of Fountains Blenhein for forecast purposes. That said, if Firm But Fair bypasses his engagement at Uttoxeter on Wednesday and lines up here, he will be the main danger to the selection.
