Forecasts

Rose Grey (3/1), Purgatory (7/2), Fair Power (9/2), Precision Storm (9/1), Tangramm (9/1), Jeddeyd (9/1), Redshank (18/1), Hurricane Ali (20/1), Roca Magica (20/1), Roman Stone (25/1), Dreaming Of Paris (28/1), Come On My Son (50/1)

ROSE GREY is still relatively unexposed and she can get off the mark at the fifth time of asking, off a workable-looking mark. Tangramm won here earlier in the month and should go close once again if in the same form. Purgatory is relatively consistent and makes some each-way appeal.
