Forecasts

South Shore (13/8), Due For Luck (2/1), Saint Matthew (9/2), Instant Recall (6/1), Pals Battalion (12/1), Fifty Grand Slater (40/1), Bill's Baar (50/1)

DUE FOR LUCK looked potentially useful when a ready winner on his Carlisle debut in June and is taken give the weight away to Instant Recall and Saint Matthew. Newcomer South Shore would also need considering if the betting speaks for him.
