Forecasts

Top Notch Tommy (10/3), Silks Dream (9/2), Ringo Starlight (5/1), True Jem (15/2), Just Another (15/2), Coast (17/2), Eesha Meesh (12/1), Lucy Lulu (16/1), Romantic Thought (16/1), Blaast (20/1), Bankrupt (28/1), Boadicea Belle (33/1), Allarmista (40/1)

A fiercely-competitive handicap with TOP NOTCH TOMMY chanced to find the necessary improvement on handicap debut. Ringo Starlight won well over C&D last month and he'll be a threat off a 5 lb higher mark. Bankrupt is another handicap debutant worthy of consideration.
