Forecasts

Ooh Is It (9/4), Anjella (10/3), High Security (11/2), Moonshiner (17/2), Nagasaki Dream (10/1), Aish (11/1), Swooper (11/1), Nacho (18/1), Spirit Of Heaven (25/1), Red Walls (28/1), Sparkling Perry (33/1)

MOONSHINER represents an up-and-coming yard and she offered enough on reappearance in a stronger handicap than this to think she's up to doing some damage from her current mark. Aish was probably value for a bit extra when winning at Brighton last time and is feared, along with Ooh Is It and Nacho.
