Forecasts

I'm Digby (10/11), Violet's Lads (11/4), Memory Hill (9/1), Miss Sligo (14/1), Miss Matterhorn (18/1), Music Major (20/1), The Lords Walk (20/1), Woggle (25/1), Nordic Dash (50/1), Petesorse (50/1), Miss Pollyanna (66/1), Stopdworldnletmeof (80/1)

I'M DIGBY retains handicap scope up 5 lb for winning over C&D recently, so the follow up is very much on the cards. Violet's Lads is respected on just her second try at this trip, while it would come as no surprise to see Music Major bounce back from a poor run last time.
