Forecasts

Johnjay (9/4), Dappled Light (7/2), Next Trick (11/2), Port Noir (7/1), Glencalvie (15/2), Happy Chandler (14/1), Royal Justice (16/1), Outrace (18/1), Letter Of The Law (25/1), Dogged (40/1), Glen Esk (66/1)

JOHNJAY has won first time back in the past and is worth chancing to do so again with Tom Marquand up. Adrian Wintle's pair Glencalvie and Dappled Light are strong contenders.
