Forecasts

Hell Hound (11/8), Fern Hill (10/3), Always Busy (7/2), Queens Wish (11/2), Noche Negra (17/2), Le Beau Gosse (33/1)

Preference is for QUEENS WISH, who remains lightly raced as a staying chaser so is worth another chance following a rare below-par effort at Market Rasen last time. She can land a second C&D success, though Hell Hound is one to note with his reappearance run behind him.
