Forecasts

Jordan Electrics (5/1), First Folio (5/1), Londoner (5/1), Tiriac (11/2), Manila Scouse (6/1), Rocket Rodney (9/1), Silky Wilkie (10/1), Raatea (11/1), Spangled Mac (12/1), Magical Spirit (14/1)

TIRIAC shaped well in a well-contested event at York on his penultimate outing, then made his effort earlier than ideal at Haydock 15 days ago, so he's worth a chance to resume winning ways for all that Jordan Electrics is sure to put up a bold bid for another course success. Manila Scouse is another one who can figure in an open-looking contest.
