Forecasts

Initio (10/11), Fianian (7/2), So Glorious (9/1), Hailey Ya Mal (9/1), Maruna (11/1), National Health (18/1), Won't Stand Down (20/1), Teah (33/1), Jesse Luc (66/1), Pachelbel (100/1), Timely Artist (150/1), Hedenham (250/1)

INITIO wasn't seen at his best in the mud at York last time but possesses much the best form on offer and is taken to get off the mark at the chief expense of Mick Appleby's newcomer Maruna who is worth monitoring in the betting. National Health and Hailey Ya Mal appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
