Forecasts

Bomb Squad (10/3), Lupset Flossy Pop (10/3), Deputise (4/1), Blackcurrent (11/2), Guest List (8/1), Irish Dessert (17/2), Tathmeen (12/1), Jumira Bridge (14/1), Little Man (16/1), Dresden Green (16/1), Lady Gazelle (22/1), Manila Style (22/1), Breath Catcher (28/1), Quanah (40/1)

DEPUTISE ended a losing run in taking style over C&D last week and a 4 lb penalty might not be sufficient to prevent Michael Wigham's 7-y-o from a quick follow up. C&D scorer Blackcurrent came in third that day and again looks set for a place, with Irish Dessert and Bomb Squad completing the shortlist.
