Forecasts

Halcyon Days (4/1), Sleep In First (9/2), John Williams (5/1), Trust Thomas (13/2), Dica (8/1), Endless Credit (9/1), Indian Voyage (9/1), Civil Unrest (12/1), Brother Scott (14/1), Warksburn Boy (50/1)

Verdict

Dica has been running with much credit over the winter and is likely to give it another good shot despite his big weight. Halcyon Days returned to form last time and will be a danger to all if in a similar mood off just a 1lb higher mark. Trust Thomas has dropped to a dangerous mark and market moves should be noted but preference is for JOHN WILLIAMS. The ground went against him at Kelso last time and he can make a return to winning ways back on this better ground today.
  1. John Williams
  2. Halcyon Days
  3. Dica
