Forecasts

Latin (9/4), Mr Nugget (11/2), Ernie's Valentine (11/2), Lessay (6/1), Beaming Light (13/2), Francesi (7/1), First Greyed (8/1), Youarenotforgiven (11/1), Mao Shang Wong (14/1), Implied Volatility (20/1), Toralou (22/1), Mooretown Lad (40/1)

LATIN has won his last three starts at this track and defied a penalty to complete his hat-trick with a short-head success 17 days ago. Thriving and tactically versatile, he's fancied to defy a 4lb rise. Francesi continues in good heart despite being unable to complete his own hat-trick here recently, while Mr Nugget also has three AW wins this season.
