Forecasts

Cochise (10/3), Seagulls Nest (4/1), Jackamundo (11/2), Endlessly (11/2), Mack The Knife (7/1), Magna Moralia (15/2), Tynecastle Park (15/2), The Dancing Poet (8/1), Intercessor (10/1), Mahanakhon Power (12/1), Snookered (33/1), Beat The Breeze (33/1), Never Surrender (80/1)

SEAGULLS NEST is unexposed and makes plenty of appeal as she steps up in trip on handicap debut. She has fitness on her side, is proven on turf and George Bass takes a useful 5 lb off. Endlessly (engaged Friday) ran well at Wolverhampton last time and she hasn't been with this yard for long so has to be taken seriously. Magna Moralia showed some good Flat form last year and can't be ruled out.
