Forecasts

Solomon Grey (10/11), Dieu Vivant (9/4), Bletchley Castle (3/1)

Although a tricky customer, DIEU VIVANT found for pressure when scoring at Southwell 44days ago and he's been successful over C&D in the past, so he gets the marginal vote ahead of Solomon Grey, who is closely matched on form. Bletchley Castle isn't completely out of it, either.
