Forecasts

Kyber Crystal (2/1), Sound Of Iona (10/3), Mrs Bagerran (5/1), Henery Hawk (9/1), Cuban Rock (12/1), Ski Angel (14/1), Mecca's Duchess (14/1), Sixcor (18/1), Hard Nut (20/1), Borough (20/1), Brazen Belle (150/1)

The front-running MRS BAGERRAN made a good return from an absence here recently and might prove the answer to this finale from a handy draw near the rail. Cuban Rock is back on the mark he defied at Hamilton in July and is second choice ahead of Ski Angel, who had an excuse here last time and has been cut some slack by the handicapper.
