Forecasts

Lothian (5/2), Elegant Ellen (3/1), Youllovemewheniwin (4/1), San Juan (4/1), Tommytwohoots (8/1), Musaytir (11/1), Macon Belle (18/1), Perfect Symphony (28/1), Pyrrhos (33/1), Wiff Waff (40/1), Pusey Street (66/1)

LOTHIAN isn't easy to win with but he shaped really well from a poor track position at Kempton when last seen in October and this looks the easiest race he has ever contested back from a break. Perfect Symphony and Elegant Ellen are a couple of potential dangers.
