Forecasts

Durrell (11/8), Kesarina (9/4), Point In Time (8/1), Aquascape (10/1), Unit of Assessment (10/1), Hooflepuff (16/1), Hibernian Warrior (20/1)

KESARINA has been found a fairly easy opening to get off the mark. She's been running creditably all summer and should have further improvement to come. Durrell is a consistent sort who should go well with James Doyle taking over. Hooflepuff might rediscover his form returning to this venue.
