Forecasts

Libra Tiger (11/4), Sir Gregory (3/1), Swiss Pride (16/5), Winnetka (4/1), Lilkian (8/1), Makinitup (16/1), King Of Speed (18/1), Huddleton Mac (22/1), Bezzas Lad (40/1), Kodiac Sign (50/1)

SWISS PRIDE arrives in excellent nick and with the form of his Lingfield second working out well this C&D winner gets the nod off an unchanged mark. Sir Gregory lost all chance at the start at Southwell last time but had been in good form prior to that and is next best ahead of Winnetka, who should be all the better for his recent sixth here after a lay-off.
