Forecasts

Constancio (7/4), Gemologist (7/2), Stainsby Girl (5/1), Caldwell (5/1), Sarvi (8/1), Le Magnifique (12/1)

GEMOLOGIST is fancied to finally open her account having posted a very good third at Kelso after a wind op and is now racing off a 2 lb lower mark. In-form Constancio is next on the list with his yard among the winners, although the returning Stainsby Girl needs considering too given her good record when fresh.
