Forecasts

Wbee (11/8), The Distant Lady (5/2), Oksana (10/3), Khan (9/2), Drakes Well (5/1), Jamessaintpatrick (17/2)

Hat-trick seeking WBEE looks the way to go here given he arrives on the up and still ahead of his mark nudged up only 2 lb for his latest Cartmel success. In-form mare Oksana didn't enjoy the rub of the green when third at Cartmel and is next on the list ahead of Drakes Well, who shouldn't be underestimated either now back in this sphere.
