Forecasts

Zing Up (3/1), We're Reunited (7/2), Jazzagal (5/1), Deputise (5/1), Coronation Cottage (11/2), Kodi Dancer (9/1), Suanni (12/1), Epeius (16/1), Alya's Gold Award (33/1), Autumn Lights (33/1)

DEPUTISE gained his first win since his juvenile campaign at Southwell earlier in the month and is fancied to successfully concede weight to his opposition here. Jazzagal and We're Reunited have to shrug off lesser runs but they both merit respect on the balance of this season's form, whilst Zing Up produced a much better effort last time and wouldn't be ruled out if able to back that up.
