Forecasts

Burning Bush (11/4), Bicep (7/2), Ye Gud Thing (5/1), Millie Lou (13/2), Wrought Iron (9/1), Sir Lelo (10/1), Fair And Square (14/1), Bluebell Way (16/1), Hattie C (25/1), Sapphire's Moon (25/1)

YE GUD THING has found some improvement of late and her opening mark looks a good one starting out for a new yard. Wrought Iron's form looks solid and he is another to consider switched to a handicap having been gelded, while Bicep is worth another chance having found the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot too much.
