Forecasts

Enderman (4/1), Sovereign Moon (9/2), Al Suil Eile (5/1), Amelia R (11/2), Street Poet (11/2), Trevie Fountain (13/2), Hardy (11/1), The Retriever (18/1), Wrath Of Hector (20/1), Makyon (50/1), But You Said (50/1), Gloryella (125/1)

A few with chances, but AMELIA R made an encouraging return after an absence when third here last month and gets the nod with that form proving strong for the grade. In-form Street Poet can't be taken lightly and is next on the list, while C&D scorer A Suil Eile also needs considering despite arriving on a lengthy losing sequence.
