Forecasts

Cafe Con Leche (2/1), Conna Cottage (11/4), Desert Friend (4/1), Bigz Belief (7/1), Wajaaha (17/2), Willie The Coo (10/1), Must Meet Cecil (11/1), Howsthewoman (50/1)

Verdict

Having run respectably on the Flat here on Wednesday, CAFE CON LECHE and his success in a handicap hurdle at Limerick in March was gained on the back of a six-day break. The 7-y-o will have a big chance on these terms. Conna Cottage could be the one to benefit most should Cafe Con Leche not take part, with Wajaaha and Desert Friend set for minor roles.
