Forecasts

Paycheck (11/10), Wether Fell (5/2), Legal Reform (9/2), Hoylake (10/1), Palo Santo (11/1), Bobby Shaft (22/1), Horatio (25/1), Bluetech (40/1), Burrows Seeside (80/1), Elspeth Rose (100/1), The Monsieur Man (100/1), Heer Me (200/1), Miss Plymwick (200/1)

There is a race in LEGAL REFORM, well backed twice when with Jim Bolger, including when chasing home Royal Ascot-winner Russian Emperor on debut, and he could be the way to go in first-time cheekpieces for a new yard. Paycheck is interesting judged on her October Lingfield run and Hoylake is an appealing newcomer.
