Forecasts

Silver Shade (30/100), Eagle Springs (11/4), Cherokee Dance (9/2)

SILVER SHADE looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to back up last month's Newcastle win. He is progressive and can defy an 8 lb rise. Eagle Springs could improve this year and looks more of a threat here than Cherokee Dance.
