Forecasts

City Vaults (3/1), Peripeteia (6/1), Make A Prophet (13/2), Saulire Star (13/2), Mr Heinz (15/2), Bearwith (8/1), Cloch Nua (17/2), Milltown Lily (17/2), Going Underground (16/1), Seven For A Pound (22/1), Perfect Soldier (40/1), Mr Sundowner (50/1), Gloryella (80/1), Elisheva (80/1)

CLOCH NUA has yet to to win a race but shapes as though this trip will suit, and with Andrea Atzeni an eye-catching booking, he gets the tentative vote. City Vaults was disappointing at Musselburgh last week but he remains of interest at this level, with C&D scorer Peripeteia another to note.
