Forecasts

Outrage (7/4), Union Rose (10/3), Spring Bloom (4/1), Shining (9/2), Kick On Kick On (5/1), Seraphinite (17/2)

Impossible to rule any of the sextet out, but at the likely prices a chance is taken on KICK ON KICK ON, who should appreciate this drop back to the minimum trip and can end a long losing run. Outrage possibly needed the outing when third at Lingfield 9 days ago so can chase the selection home from his lower turf mark, ahead of Union Rose.
