Forecasts

Romanovich (9/2), Stella Hogan (11/2), Ibiza Rocks (15/2), Thewaytothestars (15/2), Diamondsinthesand (9/1), Letter Of The Law (9/1), Fact Or Fable (11/1), Port Noir (12/1), Marchetti (14/1), Doonbeg Farmer (14/1), Broxi (16/1), Destiny's Spirit (20/1), Afterlife (33/1), Dynamite Katie (33/1)

LETTER OF THE LAW bounced back to form despite making his effort earlier than ideal when runner-up at Brighton last month, so he's the percentage call to go one better. Ibiza Rocks, Port Noir and Stella Hogan are a trio of others with claims in a competitive low-grade affair.
