Forecasts

Coast (2/1), Rum Cocktail (9/4), Sixth Street (10/3), True Icon (11/2), Brides Bay (6/1), Wowzers (18/1), Coup De Force (20/1), Accelerando (40/1), Hot Legs Lil (66/1), Glamping (200/1), Curb Appeal (200/1)

TRUE ICON showed why she'd been so well backed on debut when runner-up at Nottingham a fortnight ago, and with further improvement on the cards given her useful pedigree, she's taken to make it third time lucky. Rum Cocktail found extra to edge out a subsequent winner at Newmarket in August and can progress again, while Sixth Street and Coast also have good credentials.
