Forecasts

Somebody (11/4), Taaklam (11/4), Fizzy Cristal (9/2), Eclipser (8/1), Blazing (10/1), Rajak (14/1), Thornaby Annie (16/1), Long Shot (20/1), Madame Koko (33/1)

THORNABY ANNIE made a promising nursery debut when third over C&D ten days ago, finishing with a good late run, and looks ready to break through. She comes up against Fizzy Cristal again, and the runner-up there looks sure to be winning races herself soon. Madame Koko can progress in handicaps if settling better.
