Forecasts

Ocean Reach (13/8), On The Right Track (5/2), Alioski (16/5), Miss Matterhorn (9/2), Global Wonder (5/1), Harbour Force (12/1), Sky Central (28/1), Eloquent Charm (66/1), Tsarmina (80/1)

The vote goes to ON THE RIGHT TRACK, who was possibly unsuited by conditions at Bath recently and he will have every chance here if the ground remains on the fast side. Ocean Reach is a longstanding maiden, but she has to be feared on the back of her latest improved effort at Nottingham, while Miss Matterhorn is another to consider.
