Forecasts

Indian Opera (11/8), Liva (10/3), Ballycrystal Court (5/1), Desert Island Dusk (6/1), Ballynanty (7/1), Exit To Where (12/1), Green Zone (16/1)

Verdict

Most of these are fairly exposed so a chance is taken that the four-year-old LIVA is on the upgrade and can exploit what looks a fair mark for his handicap bow. Ballycrystal Court went close over C&D earlier this season and is respected, as too is top weight Indian Opera who scored nicely last time at Catterick. Green Zone is expected to put up a bold show too, while Ballynanty is another with claims in a fair heat.
