Forecasts

Trautmann (7/2), Different Journey (7/2), Pour L'Amour (9/2), New Abbey Angel (5/1), Fillydelphia (11/2), Falcon's Fire (7/1), Colour Contrast (8/1), Mont Royal (12/1), Tectonic (33/1), Lots Ov (50/1)

POUR L'AMOUR has been in good form recently and with the trip and forecast ground both in her favour she is taken to register a success in this competitive middle distance handicap. Colour Contrast can put a disappointing effort last time out behind him by finishing second stepping up in distance while third can go to New Abbey Angel who was narrowly beaten here earlier this month.
