Forecasts

Giant (5/6), Scramble (7/2), Bonkersinabundance (6/1), Ray Vonn (9/1), Holy Fire (11/1), The Malton Mauler (22/1), Dream Final (33/1), Motasaleeta (66/1), Remunerator (100/1), Blink (250/1)

BONKERSINABUNDANCE may well be a stable lesser light but in a maiden that is unlikely to take much winning, Roger Varian's filly looks to have found an ideal opportunity. The main danger could be Giant, who was in need of the experience when down the field on debut at Newmarket a couple of months ago, with Scramble completing the shortlist.
