Forecasts

Tamaris (11/5), Toad Of Toad Hall (9/4), Abingworth (10/3), Auditoria (5/1), Solid Fuel (12/1)

TOAD OF TOAD HALL is enjoying a very good season and fancied to bag a third success on the back of his career-best victory here last month. Plumpton-scorer Tamaris rates the main danger ahead of Gary Moore's chasing-debutant Abingworth.
