Forecasts

Infantry Officer (6/4), Captain Brett (11/4), Top Of Pleinmont (7/1), Currahee (15/2), Ta Craic Ann (10/1), Cuda Been A Rowlex (20/1), Magic Topissima (25/1), Itsgottobefun (33/1), Resilient Lady (40/1), Bear Baby (40/1)

An open handicap but CURRAHEE took a step forward when an encouraging fifth on his handicap debut at Lingfield last time and with further progress on the cards he looks the way to go. Captain Brett also has better days ahead of him and could emerge as the main danger ahead of Bear Baby and Itsgottobefun.
