Forecasts

Galactic Glow (9/4), Lilandra (7/2), Bantry (7/2), Lord Clenaghcastle (5/1), Gypsy Whisper (5/1), Gilt Edge (6/1), Luxy Lou (8/1), Lady Bianca (40/1), Apache Jewel (40/1), Autumn Lights (80/1)

LORD CLENAGHCASTLE made a solid start for his new stable when runner-up at Brighton 12 days ago and he's well handicapped on past exploits, so he gets the vote in a weak event. Lilandra arrives in good order and should pose a threat, while Galactic Glow is expected to bounce back from a poor showing.
