Forecasts

Therapist (10/3), Knockbrex (4/1), Crystal Mariner (5/1), Raintown (13/2), Hebridean Nomad (7/1), Gallant Lion (7/1), Damascus Steel (12/1), Early Morning Dew (28/1), True Courage (28/1)

CRYSTAL MARINER has made a positive start for this yard, pulling clear of the rest when beaten only by a thriving sort at Kempton last time, and he's taken to go one better. Therapist ran well back on the Flat when third here last month and is feared returned to a more suitable trip, with Gallant Lion another to consider back down in class.
