Forecasts

Impressor (7/4), Slainte Mhath (2/1), Ramon Di Loria (13/2), Wen Moon (15/2), Iris Dancer (9/1), Rory (12/1)

IMPRESSOR didn't have things go his way at Beverley earlier in the week and can show he's still on a good mark. C&D specialist Slainte Mhath is feared most ahead of sole 3-y-o Wen Moon.
