Forecasts

Talbot (4/1), Play By The Rules (9/2), Miramis (5/1), Derry Lad (7/1), New Hill (17/2), Red Ball Of Fire (11/1), Kodiac Prince (12/1), Lucky Number (12/1), Dreal Deal (12/1), Malayan (18/1), Just For Yuse (22/1), House Of Kings (28/1), Shona Mea (40/1)

PLAY BY THE RULES has fewer miles on the clock than most here and gets the nod in a tricky-looking contest. Derry Lad and Talbot should also give a good account.
