Forecasts

Elusive Guy (9/2), Tudor Manor (7/1), Grann's Boy (15/2), Plains Indian (8/1), Red Secret (8/1), Man Of Action (17/2), Desert Friend (17/2), The Truant (9/1), Rain (10/1), Redwood Queen (10/1), Bold Approach (11/1), Noble Crusade (11/1), Londonofficecallin (12/1), Sir Allen (14/1), Duty Bound (16/1), Arabian King (25/1), Cafe Con Leche (28/1), Rumi (50/1)

DUTY BOUND was success over fences last time and is appealing back in this sphere off an attractive mark. If Bold Approach puts his best foot forward he will be a big threat, while Red Secret should be in the thick of things once again. Desert Friend could have a part to play, too, and six-time hurdles winner Redwood Queen is interesting on her handicap bow in this sphere.
