Forecasts

Believe In Stars (15/8), Storm Catcher (2/1), Greatgadian (7/2), Base Note (5/1), Felix (12/1), Mr Professor (12/1), Barenboim (14/1), Yorkshire Lady (20/1)

With just three runs under his belt, there is almost certainly more to come from BELIEVE IN STARS, who narrowly prevailed in a Goodwood novice in September and makes his handicap debut off what looks a decent enough mark. Greatgadian returned to form when scoring over a mile here and he is second choice ahead of Storm Catcher and Mr Professor.
