Forecasts

Tonto's Spirit (9/4), Donnachies Girl (5/2), Spiritoftomintoul (3/1), Canny Style (4/1), Duke Of Yorkshire (11/2), Mishko (6/1), Fillydelphia (12/1), Celtic Power (16/1), Schmooze (16/1), Cougar Kid (16/1), Riponian (40/1)

A very moderate opener where TONTO'S SPIRIT is given the vote despite a rising mark, as he will be at least as well suited as the rest of the field if the forecast rains arrive. He also stays well and does not waste many opportunities at the racecourse. Duke Of Yorkshire has the ability to land a blow, though rain would be a concern, while Donnachies Girl and Spiritoftomintoul should both be on the premises.
