Forecasts

Raavi (10/11), Cider Bob (10/3), Gorgeous Mr George (5/1), Off The Bench (15/2), Jimmy Henry (16/1)

It could be worth chancing RAAVI, who didn't show much in 3 starts last term but is a potential improver for his in-form yard now tried in a handicap with headgear applied (has also been gelded). Off The Bench is feared most down in class.
