Forecasts

Maysong (3/1), Psyche (4/1), Engrave (9/2), Mc'ted (13/2), Bayston Hill (12/1), Only The Brave (14/1), One To Go (14/1), Boy In The Bar (18/1), Dandy Maestro (20/1), Motarajja (22/1), Aradous (25/1), Pablo Prince (33/1), The Game Is On (40/1), Dream Chaser (40/1), Stamford Raffles (50/1), Top Drop (125/1)

MAYSONG looked ready to strike when second over C&D last time and with Simon Walker taking the ride, he looks the one to side with. Engrave saves her best for this venue and she'll be a big danger. Aradous has to be respected on his first start for a yard that have a knack at improving other yard's cast offs.
