Forecasts

Fast Tara (7/4), Love Mocha (2/1), Hutton Glen (5/1), Gunsight (10/1), Hokusai (12/1), Vikki Wall (18/1), Doctor Nightingale (25/1), Grey Leader (33/1), Believe Me Now (50/1), Lasting Peace (100/1), Good Fit (150/1), Buzzen (250/1)

This stiffer test of stamina will suit FAST TARA on her return and she showed enough in a brace of juvenile runs to think she can win a maiden. Love Mocha is feared, while some of the newcomers may come to the fore, with Grey Leader and Hutton Glen a couple of likely-looking sorts.
