Forecasts

Hilary's Boy (5/2), Glasstrees (10/3), Pocket The Profit (10/3), Burtonlodge Beauty (5/1), Sulevia (8/1), Berry Quick (14/1), Alnood (33/1), Maison Beau (40/1), Miss Shirley (100/1), Estefan (100/1)

GLASSTREES is 6 lb 'well-in' following her recent nursery debut near-miss at Leicester and, if able to at least match that level of form now switched to polytrack, she will take plenty of stopping. Burtonlodge Beauty arrives on the back of decent placed efforts at Chepstow and she is clear second choice ahead of Thirsk winner Hilary's Boy. Alnood is one to note in the betting.
