Forecasts

Prospect (10/3), George Scott (7/2), Dark Esteem (7/2), Sense Of Romance (9/2), Enderman (9/2), Ariel (5/1), Equisential (12/1), Dream Chaser (12/1), Hugsy (40/1), Kodi Gold (40/1), Tattoo (50/1)

SENSE OF ROMANCE has been running well without winning and she shaped very well at Lingfield last time when held up. This flatter track may suit her a bit better than Lingfield and she looks the one to beat. Ariel makes plenty of appeal returning from a gelding operation. Any market support for Equisential would be notable.
