Forecasts

Shymay (10/3), Rainbow Mirage (4/1), Secret Treaties (4/1), Hey Ho Let's Go (5/1), At Your Service (15/2), Cherish (9/1), Delagate The Lady (18/1), Eastern Star (20/1), Perfect Symphony (22/1), Flowers On Venus (28/1), Tarseekh (28/1), Hot Hot Hot (100/1)

The return to 6f will suit HEY HO LET'S GO who can gain reward for his consistency of late and notch an overdue second career success. Secret Treaties made a solid start for new-trainer Mick Appleby at Southwell last week and can give Mark Hoad's charge most to do ahead of Cherish.
