Forecasts

Plastic Paddy (13/8), Fennaan (9/2), Caballero (11/2), Abnaa (7/1), Nat Love (12/1), The Sedberghian (14/1), Ring Of Gold (16/1), Lincoln Gamble (25/1), Kornflake (25/1), Batocchi (40/1), Cosa Sara (50/1), Gently Spoken (80/1), New Rhythm (250/1)

FENNAAN signalled he's ready to add to his previous C&D victory when a sweet-travelling fifth over C&D last time so gets the nod. Caballero arrives on a long losing run but can make his presence felt on the back of his clear Musselburgh second along with in-form Plastic Paddy, despite having a career-high mark to overcome.
