Forecasts

Harry's Legacy (11/4), Monas Melody (7/2), Lunar Power (9/2), Vischio (6/1), Takarengo (7/1), The Names Jock (11/1), Khezaana (12/1), The Jam Man (22/1), Only Sky (33/1)

HARRY'S LEGACY is in good order and the return to this trip looks well in his favour, so he's preferred to Vischio in a tightly-knit event. Monas Melody, a winner at Bellewstown last time, is another one to consider on the back of a 6-lb rise.
