Forecasts

Thai Terrier (9/4), Rafiot (11/4), Social City (4/1), Artistic Streak (7/1), Tynecastle Park (17/2), Indigo Times (11/1), Alfredo (20/1)

RAFIOT won easily on his first visit here last month and it's possible he develops into a fibresand specialist. He is chanced to gain a second course victory up in trip. Thai Terrier is thriving and he should go close. Artistic Streak saves her best for this venue and shouldn't be far away.
