Forecasts

Liberty Dance (3/1), Ottizzini (10/3), Clairmc (9/2), Chernikova (6/1), Fairy Tree (15/2), Skinnider (17/2), Light Parade (16/1), Katherine (18/1), Cocoplum (20/1), My True Blue (33/1), Comedy Of Ice (40/1), Coolaney Express (50/1), Russellsbelle (50/1), Bella Be Good (66/1), Space Tourist (80/1), Grandy Light (100/1), Athagabhain (200/1)

LIBERTY DANCE is related to a number of winners and is the pick of Jamie Codd out of the two Gordon Elliot-trained runners, so she's fancied to make a winning start. Fairy Tree ran with credit in listed company at Cheltenham last time, so she's a player, while the selection's stablemate Chernikova could take the spoils if cheekpieces bring about some improvement.
