Forecasts

Sammy Sunshine (10/3), Folly Beach (4/1), Moonlit Night (4/1), Lady Pacifico (6/1), Twilley (7/1), Dreams Unwind (15/2), New Day (14/1), Altiste (16/1)

MOONLIT NIGHT is bred to be a lot better than this grade, and given the yard she represents, is very much the type to flourish in handicaps. Lady Pacifico has transferred from France and her mark looks a fair one, with Sammy Sunshine also considered in first-time cheekpieces.
