Forecasts

Macadam's Rock (7/2), Jered Maddox (4/1), Scarlet Dancer (4/1), Linus Larrabee (7/1), The Bog Bank (17/2), Sunset Nova (11/1), Skontonovski (12/1), Miss Abby Jools (14/1), My Little Tip (20/1), Above It All (20/1), Eruption (20/1), Yester (25/1), Irish Millions (40/1), Storm Eric (50/1), Plankton (50/1), Transcendental (66/1), Majestic Colt (66/1)

JERED MADDOX ran right up to form when finding only a resurgent (and subsequent winner) too strong here a fortnight ago and as repeat of that effort may well suffice. Scarlet Dancer ran well here on Wednesday and he's a player if turned out quickly, with Miss Abby Jools another to consider starting out for a new yard.
