Forecasts

Sherood (11/4), Port Erin (3/1), Lordsbridge Girl (7/2), Last Hoorah (7/1), King of The Dance (8/1), Monty Be Quick (10/1), Enola Grey (14/1), Cliffs Of Capri (18/1), Taritino (18/1), Hamnet (28/1), Trais Fluors (33/1), Give A Little Back (33/1), Bobby Dassler (66/1), Nasim (80/1)

Preference is for SHEROOD, who ran well on his Newmarket handicap bow last time and still has few miles on the clock. Enola Grey and Port Erin can also make their presence felt.
