Forecasts

Madeline (13/8), Another Batt (5/1), Natural (13/2), Way of Wisdom (13/2), Simmy's Copshop (8/1), Jellmood (12/1), Looks A Million (16/1), Major Peirson (25/1), Listen Alexander (40/1)

MADELINE ran well in a Group 3 contest at Royal Ascot last time out and can register her second career success by taking this Listed contest. The selection represents a leading stable here and can get the better of Simmy's Copshop who is a consistent sort who finished runner-up in France last time out. Of the remainder Another Batt hails from a yard in good form at present and has won twice in a five race career so far.
