Forecasts

Ozzie Man (11/10), A Time To Shine (9/4), Windance (11/2), Potters Venture (13/2), Ripper Roo (8/1)

While there is a bit of room for improvement in the jumping department, OZZIE MAN hasn't done much wrong since switched to fences and he shaped as though moving back up in trip would be very much in his favour when narrowly outpointed over 2½m at Huntingdon last week. He gets the nod ahead of A Time To Shine, who will be a big threat if able to build on his comeback effort. Windance is probably best of the rest, albeit as a result of a process of elimination rather than a vote of confidence.
