Forecasts

Verona Star (11/4), Windsor Pass (4/1), Al Baahy (9/2), Ignac Lamar (11/2), A Pint Of Bear (10/1), Blue Collar Lad (10/1), Coolagh Magic (16/1), Gilt Edge (20/1), Rosenpur (22/1), Till It Shines (28/1), Frightening (33/1), Rogue Rosie (40/1)

A few with chances but COOLAGH MAGIC looks the way to go on the back of his emphatic recent Lingfield success. Handily-weighted Windsor Pass heads the list of dangers with Blue Collar Lad, Rosenpur and Al Baahy also in the picture.
