Forecasts

Spanish Kiss (11/10), I Can't Remember (4/1), Amjaady (11/2), Phoenix Approach (13/2), Bellatrixsa (7/1), Echo (9/1), Clifftop Heaven (12/1), Sincerity (14/1), Zabeel Star (25/1), Sulafaat (28/1), International Law (33/1), Loch Ness Monster (33/1), Trinity Star (50/1), Mesmeric (50/1)

BELLATRIXSA looked a nice prospect for handicaps when second at Ayr 6 weeks ago and could show her mark to be a lenient one with victory, this step up in distance sure to suit her. I Can't Remember ran well from the front here on Thursday and must have a shout off the same mark up in trip. Spanish Kiss should be a big player now bypassing his Monday engagement at Windsor.
