Forecasts

Pillar (10/3), Red Cymbal (4/1), Bambari (6/1), Zippity (13/2), Keepthebestsideout (15/2), All About Ivy (8/1), Pretty Smart (17/2), Maggie Thunder (20/1), Plough Boy (22/1), Seanjohnsilver (22/1), Dandy Spirit (25/1), Is That Love (28/1), Dashing Dusty (125/1)

Tracey Collins' ZIPPITY gets the nod to come out on top back at the scene of her sole victory earlier this year. Her 3 runs on the turf this summer were slightly disappointing, but she should be bang there back on the all-weather following a break. There was just a neck between Pillar and Red Cymbal here last week and they look set to play a part once again, along with Keepthebestsideout.
