Forecasts

Eternal Sunshine (4/6), Sugar Hill Babe (11/2), Ecclesiastical (15/2), Wee Fat Mac (8/1), Whisky McGonagall (12/1), Classy Clarets (14/1), Sixcor (25/1), Call Me Ginger (33/1), Chookie Dunedin (200/1)

The thriving ETERNAL SUNSHINE went close off this mark at Musselburgh on Sunday so is the one to beat. Sugar Hill Babe is closely matched with the selection judged on their running at Musselburgh so is the obvious threat, with Ecclesiastical another to consider judged on his eye-catching run last time.
