Forecasts

Flower Of Scotland (7/4), Polyphony (3/1), Nellie Moon (7/2), Good Soul (11/2), Act Naturally (10/1), Ladywood (22/1)

Amanda Perrett's NELLIE MOON did well to score at Newbury last week given the runner-up got first run on her and she is fancied to defy a 6 lb penalty at the chief expense of Flower of Scotland, who rates a big danger on the back of her plucky Haydock success. In-form Polyphony appeals as the pick of the remaining quartet.
