Forecasts

Hawk In The Sky (85/40), Burtonwood (4/1), Not On Your Nellie (11/2), Harrogate (11/2), Mecca's Hot Steps (6/1), Tilsworth Rose (13/2), Twelve Diamonds (8/1), Honey Gg (12/1), Awsaaf (18/1), Solemn Pledge (22/1), Navajo Dawn (22/1), Oriental Splendour (25/1), Viking Way (33/1)

These testing conditions should suit HAWK IN THE SKY who is taken to turn around last month's Beverley form with Not On Your Nellie and Burtonwood and provide in-form Richard Whitaker with another winner. Mecca's Hot Steps is proven in the mud.
