Forecasts

Brechin Castle (9/4), Captain Bellamy (5/2), Celtic Dino (9/2), Let It Rain (8/1), Horaces Pearl (8/1), I Wont Back Down (17/2), Dunskay (11/1), Marvellous Mick (14/1), Ami Bondhu (20/1), I'm A Lumberjack (22/1), Future Fortune (33/1), Mr Zippi (80/1), Willoughby Cleeve (100/1), U Cant Be Serious (150/1), Minella Miracle (250/1)

BRECHIN CASTLE is unbeaten in three (including a point) and he could have pulled out more if required at Cheltenham last time, so he's fancied to add to his burgeoning reputation here. Impressive debut winners Let It Rain and Captain Bellamy are feared most.
