Forecasts

Deise Aba (10/3), Salty Boy (7/2), Larry (5/1), Strictlyadancer (6/1), Highland Hunter (9/1), Christmas In April (11/1), The Mighty Don (12/1), Eclair De Guye (16/1), Red Infantry (16/1), Seaston Spirit (25/1)

DEISE ABA returned with a solid showing over hurdles and has scored on both previous visits to this track, so he gets the marginal vote in an open-looking contest. The thriving Strictlyadancer deserves plenty of respect bidding for the four-timer and it would be no surprise if Highland Hunter returned with an improved showing.
