Forecasts

Cusano (9/4), Bellbird (3/1), Opera King (3/1), Doeshefitthebill (5/1), Chevington (8/1), We Ain't Walking (66/1)

A good heat, several having shown promise already, though preference is for BELLBIRD after last month's encouraging Stratford third. Cusano is a really interesting recruit to hurdling for the Dan Skelton yard, whilst Doeshefitthebill caught the eye under considerate handling here last time and is also considered.
