Forecasts

The Trickster (3/1), Castle Stuart (10/3), Bubbles Wonky (7/2), I Am Me (4/1), Silent Age (9/2), Individualism (6/1), Rhythm Master (10/1)

THE TRICKSTER boasts some solid 3-y-o form, notably his run at Ascot in May, and could be the answer taking on his elders for the first time. Bubbles Wonky is worth another chance to confirm the promise of his Hamilton win so is next best ahead of Individualism, who was just edged out off this mark at Beverley last week.
