Forecasts

Xpo Universel (4/6), Divine Port (7/2), Trooblue (11/2), Ballasalla (8/1), Blue Bullet (10/1), Vasco D'Ycy (14/1)

Several in with chances here. Ballasalla ran well on his return from wind surgery last month, though he would probably look better suited by a bit further. Divine Port is of interest on his debut for Pauline Robson, while Vasco D'ycy has a squeak if he is ready after an absence. Trooblue looks a serious player, but it is hard to get away from the wide margin hurdles win by XPO UNIVERSAL last time and he is taken to finally come good over fences.
