Forecasts

Whatsafellatodo (3/1), Petit King (10/3), Battle Of Ridgeway (11/2), Great Bear (13/2), Henning (17/2), Mister Wilson (9/1), Le Musigny (16/1), Desert Friend (18/1), Marelly (20/1), Je T'ai Porte (22/1), Vado Forte (25/1), Ricky Langford (33/1), Presenting Lad (33/1)

MISTER WILSON is of some interest now handicapping for the first time over fences and gets the nod for the Gavin Cromwell team. Petit King is another who catches the eye now moving into his first handicap over fences and is second choice ahead of Henry de Bromhead's Great Bear.
