Forecasts

French Company (9/4), Evening Verse (7/1), Dammit (17/2), Wild Shot (17/2), Rips Dream (17/2), Nusra (9/1), Conor Hogan (10/1), Lady Of Luxury (14/1), Rita Levi (14/1), Final Fantasy (16/1), Nathaniel's Dream (20/1), Angel In The Sky (22/1), Chateau Musar (25/1), Unanswered (25/1), Moving (25/1), Tenth Amendment (40/1), Eye Of The Dragon (100/1)

FRENCH COMPANY arrives in top form and has a handy draw, so he's worth chancing in an open-looking handicap. Rips Dream is a player with cheekpieces refitted and Final Fantasy can't be dismissed despite stall 14.
