Forecasts

Jorvik Prince (15/8), Swell Song (4/1), Miaella (5/1), Wild Flower (6/1), Ghepardo (17/2), Bernie's Boy (10/1), Awsaaf (20/1), Awake In Asia (28/1), Illegitimate Gains (80/1)

WILD FLOWER is thriving at the moment and she is difficult to oppose in search of the hat-trick under her in-form apprentice. The pair just touched off Swell Song at Yarmouth and she is likely to be the biggest danger once again. Bernie's Boy enjoys it round here and holds each-way claims.
