Forecasts

Visions Of Glory (15/8), Eyes (11/2), Hostelry (6/1), Lincoln Gamble (7/1), Favourite Niece (15/2), Zenzero (10/1), Tom's Reign Beau (11/1), Mighty Fine (16/1), Beechwood Emily (22/1), Perfect Soldier (50/1), Rose Of Lancashire (66/1), Archimedes (200/1)

VISIONS OF GLORY is lightly raced and he's likely got more to offer following his Wolverhampton victory last week. He's difficult to oppose under a 6 lb penalty. Eyes looks to be the biggest danger after her Yarmouth second. Mighty Fine may come on for her first UK run and appreciate the step up to 7f so she has to be considered.
