Forecasts

You Oughta Know (4/5), Anyway (2/1), St Cuthbert's Cave (11/2), Harsh (7/1), West Away (15/2), Belle The Lioness (12/1), Maidenstreetprince (20/1), Yewtree Hill (66/1), Mr Mcwhinny (125/1), Winter Orchid (250/1), One Way Traffic (250/1)

ANYWAY holds the clear edge on form so is fancied to build on his Cheltenham second last time out and gain a first victory in this sphere. Both You Oughta Know and St Cuthbert's Cave are in excellent hands and have better days ahead of them so should ensure the selection doesn't have things all his own way. Maidenstreeprince completes the shortlist.
