Forecasts

Rose King (11/8), Star Of Lady M (10/3), Skallywag Bay (9/2), Paddy's Day (11/2), Level Up (11/2), Reigning Profit (17/2), Bell Shot (16/1), Puffable (66/1)

LEVEL UP has had a fine season and appeals as the type to bounce back quickly from a below-par display at Leicester now returned to all-weather, so he earns the vote. Rose King is easily the least exposed in the field, so warrants respect, as does Paddy's Day, who's dropped to a handy mark and was unlucky not to finish closer at Redcar on his most recent outing.
