Forecasts

Something (6/4), Laudable (2/1), Meridian Way (10/1), Zenato (11/1), Val Bassett (12/1), Jamih (16/1), Nancy P (20/1), Flying Scotsman (25/1), Berry Edge (33/1), Punxsutawney Phil (40/1), Blazer Two (40/1), Moonfleet Moment (100/1)

MERIDIAN WAY hasn't shown much to date but he's bred to be much better than a mark of 46 and this much longer trip should be in his favour, so he's worth chancing on handicap debut. Something and Laudable arrive in good form and should be on the premises.
