Forecasts

Kalahari Prince (13/8), Banner Road (7/4), Powerful Response (7/2), Bay Dream Believer (7/2), Precedent (9/2), St Andrew's Castle (9/1), Blue Jay Way (25/1), Crown Bridges (40/1), Hold On Together (50/1)

KALAHARI PRINCE resumed winning ways in decisive fashion at Carlisle last weekend and, if in the same mood here, a 6 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from following up. Fellow last-time-out winners Powerful Response, Bay Dream Believer and Banner Road are feared in that order of preference.
