Forecasts
The Grey Falco (9/4), Wewillgowithplanb (11/4), Police Academy (9/2), Extraordinary Man (9/2), Letsbe Avenue (9/2), Across The Line (6/1)
An open handicap which can go the way of LETSBE AVENUE, who enhanced his good start for this yard when second off this mark at Leicester. Across The Line hinted at a revival over a trip too far at Taunton 2 weeks ago and is feared most off his reduced mark.
