Forecasts

Flying Moon (5/4), Najib (3/1), Talk Now (7/1), Rosemay (11/1), Wensley (12/1), My Valentino (20/1), Dragons Will Rise (20/1), Lucky Violet (25/1), Kodiac Lass (40/1), Milton Road (40/1), Detective (50/1), Jazz Magic (80/1), Dark Poet (80/1), Max Guevara (100/1)

TALK NOW might have found her latest run coming too soon when going for the hat-trick at Ayr 4 weeks ago and is worth another chance. Rosemay capitalised on her reduced mark at Musselburgh 9 days ago and should be on the premises again, while Najib shaped well here last time and this shorter trip is more in his favour.
