Forecasts

Nails Murphy (6/5), Chorlton Lane (6/4), Floating Spirit (11/2), Sundazed (18/1), Starlight Nation (22/1), Sam's Hope (25/1), Kay Ceraar (125/1), Heavens Light (150/1), Scarlet (200/1), Billie Lou (250/1)

CHORLTON LANE probably didn't beat a great deal on debut at Newcastle in September but it's hard to argue with the manner of that performance and with improvement forthcoming, he can remain unbeaten. Nails Murphy also made a winning start and has to be feared, with Floating Spirit perhaps the pick of the newcomers.
