Forecasts

Mokaatil (2/1), Vape (10/3), Porfin (4/1), Hannah's Return (4/1), Bama Lama (11/2), Louis Treize (6/1), First Company (16/1)

HANNAH'S RETURN produced a big career best in first-time cheekpieces when successful at Brighton in May and if she can pick up where she left off following a short break, further success may well be forthcoming. Mokaatil chases a hat-trick so has to command respect with the return to 6f no issue, while Bama Lama should give her running again.
