Forecasts

With a little rain forecast over night, the ground may go against Folkswood and Oh This Is Us who both of sound form claims. A chance is taken on GABRIAL to bounce back to form after a slightly disappointing run last time. His effort behind Sovereign Debt the time before was a smart effort and he gets weight off that rival here. Kool Kompany is another who won't mind some rain and he's an uncomplicated sort who should go well.
