Forecasts

Bloomington Bride (10/3), Just A Claim (7/2), Texas Man (18/5), Ayling (17/2), Aye Catcher (9/1), Honorah (10/1), Lucky Shake (12/1), Fiji Gold (14/1), Stanley Snugfit (16/1), Jungle Bee (25/1), Chandrika (33/1)

TEXAS MAN pulled clear with another improver when runner-up at Musselburgh 18 days ago and a 3 lb rise won't prevent another very bold bid. Just A Claim looks the pick of the opposition.
