Forecasts

Yes I'm Mali (10/3), Dc Cogent (10/3), Cairdeas (5/1), Raft Up (7/1), Havana Sky (9/1), Raatea (12/1), Miss Yorkshire (14/1), Fortamour (16/1), Lord Abama (16/1), The Actor (18/1), Chief Of State (25/1), Gressington (33/1), Jenni (33/1), Macedonian (40/1)

RAATEA is lightly raced for the time of year and had excuses when last seen. He's won a decent C&D handicap in the past and looks very well treated these days. Cairdeas can figure after another good run at Pontefract, while Lord Abama could bounce back at Newcastle having won on his last 2 visits.
