Forecasts

Nellie French (7/2), Valentine Blues (18/5), Solar Park (9/2), Thegreyvtrain (7/1), You're Cool (17/2), Glorious Charmer (17/2), Oh So Nice (11/1), Red Allure (12/1), Raabeh (12/1), Back From Dubai (22/1), Island Memory (25/1)

SOLAR PARK is 1 lb lower than when taking this race 12 months ago and his last couple of runs suggest that he may be ready to strike again. Last-time-out winners Thegreyvtrain and Nellie French can give Michael Attwater's charge most to think about.
