Forecasts

Chargo (11/4), Poets Cottage (10/3), Charlie Luciano (4/1), Adhuil (8/1), Tory Reel (9/1), Dodie Baby (14/1), Mr Globalist (16/1), Gold Lunula (16/1), Apache Hammy (16/1), Kodis Well (40/1), Dromore Glory (40/1), Vintage Release (66/1)

CHARGO is an appealing newcomer to this sphere having joined Gordon Elliott after showing fair form on both her starts on the Flat, so she's fancied to make a winning start. The Noel Meade-trained pair Poets Cottage and Charlie Luciano head the opposition in that order.
