Forecasts

Highest Sun (5/2), Sir Ivan (3/1), Soldier Of Love (16/5), Fagan (6/1), Hill Sixteen (13/2), Doitforthevillage (7/1), Soupy Soups (7/1), Beau Du Brizais (9/1), Christmas In April (12/1), Rocky's Treasure (16/1)

Following a commanding win at Newbury, FAGAN did enough at Aintree last time to think he's still in good form. Eased 2 lb, he could be the way to go, with Sir Ivan feared most, though Soldier of Love could easily get back on track eased slightly in class.
