Forecasts

Aisling Oscar (6/5), Concert Boy (16/5), Tasever (9/2), Coramento (5/1), Typeface (6/1), Lady Delila (7/1), Good Karma (12/1), Coloane (18/1), Pallas Lord (33/1), Sophiesticate (66/1)

AISLING OSCAR looked a cut above when bolting up at Newcastle 5 days ago, travelling strongly throughout before winning on the bridle. This improving gelding could run up a sequence on the all-weather. Concert Boy doesn't always find much under pressure but his 4 career victories have come at this venue, while Coramento is another to consider having won twice recently here.
