Forecasts

Gilt Edge (7/4), Lorna Cole (2/1), Requited (3/1), Thegreyvtrain (7/2), Skeetah (5/1), Mayfair Madame (10/1), Solesmes (22/1)

THEGREYVTRAIN represents a stable in good form at present and she can build on a couple of good second places finishes to take this sprint handicap. The selection can get the better of Requited who carries a penalty for a recent victory while fellow last time out winner Gilt Edge can take third.
