Forecasts

The Mackem Torpedo (2/1), Sharrabang (11/2), Rockesbury (6/1), Knockabout Queen (13/2), Fard (15/2), Coastal Mist (17/2), Raspberry (9/1), First Excel (20/1), Fantasy Justifier (20/1), Roaring Rory (33/1), Tan (66/1)

THE MACKEM TORPEDO was a bit too keen for his own good when going close here 3 weeks ago and can quickly resume winning ways back down in trip. First Excel and Knockabout Queen look best of the others.
