Forecasts

Pym (12/5), Flashing Glance (5/1), Ballyvic Boru (11/2), Cap St Vincent (13/2), Donna's Delight (7/1), Aye Aye Charlie (15/2), Baracalu (15/2), Saint Freule (10/1), Manetti (16/1), Cool Mix (20/1), Keyboard Gangster (33/1), Judge Earle (50/1), Rooster Spirit (50/1)

Check the market for clues where Saint Freule is concerned, while Rooster Spirit might be able to return to form on this dryer surface. Flashing Glance is also among those of interest, along with Baracalu and Manetti. Cap St Vincent is likely to be very competitive, but PYM has great credentials from this sphere and with a trainer hungry for every winner he can get, the gelding should be ready to go very close on debut.
