Forecasts

Nigel Nott (11/4), Crimson Sand (7/2), Lion Ring (4/1), Toussarok (5/1), Ahlawi (6/1), Cash Machine (6/1), Open Wide (17/2), Garth Rockett (18/1), Seas Of Elzaam (18/1), Giorgio Vasari (80/1)

CASH MACHINE had been running very well prior to his recent disappointment at Newcastle in a competitive race. Returning to the scene of his sole career victory, he should go very close if rediscovering his best form. Crimson Sand also thrives over this C&D and should go close. Lion Ring isn't out of it either.
