Forecasts

Samuel Spade (3/1), Al Ameen (5/1), Master Richard (7/1), Piastrella (15/2), Lelabad (8/1), Shaladar (10/1), Silks Pass (10/1), She's The Danger (11/1), Alethiometer (14/1), Meydan Rose (28/1), Looe Beach (28/1), Gentle Ellen (28/1), Stromboli (66/1), Makalu (80/1)

A case can be made for a few of these, but SAMUEL SPADE made an eye-catching return when a fast-finishing second at Haydock and can go one better off an unchanged mark. Lelabad rates a big threat on the back of his improved Yarmouth second, with Piastrella another who can't be taken lightly having not been seen to best effect at York last time.
