Forecasts

Gigi's Beach (10/3), Unashamed (18/5), Power On (4/1), Blackjack (4/1), Trevie Fountain (6/1), Gonzaga (18/1), The Retriever (22/1), Simply Sin (25/1), Makyon (33/1), Liberty Breeze (40/1), Trusty Scout (40/1), Vivency (50/1)

GIGI'S BEACH is 3 lb well-in compared to his future mark under a 5 lb penalty and is taken to stretch his winning run for new trainer Alice Haynes to 3. Unashamed leaves the impression this return to 7f will play to his strengths so he's feared most ahead of last-time-out Redcar scorer Trevie Fountain.
