Forecasts

Woodrow (10/3), Jered Maddox (9/2), Parkers Hill (6/1), Aloysius Lilius (13/2), Hodd's Girl (7/1), Noirvento (10/1), Sabrina Fairchild (12/1), Misty At Sea (12/1), Eglish (16/1), Breakfast Club (20/1), Brave Display (25/1)

An open handicap and it may pay to trust the fitness of SABRINA FAIRCHILD on return from 7 months off back on her favoured surface. Woodrow and Noirvento are just a couple of potential threats.
