Forecasts

Rudy Lewis (7/2), Salt Whistle Bay (5/1), Quarry Beach (5/1), Espresso Freddo (11/2), Al Moataz (7/1), Capton (8/1), Vive La Difference (10/1), Pushmi Pullyu (10/1), Thorn (16/1), Inner Circle (25/1), Dark Mystique (50/1)

A few of these have something to prove on the ground, with Quarry Beach and Thorn top of that list, and whilst there's no such doubts about the in-form Espresso Freddo, this is a tougher contest than the one he won at Bath, and he may need a bit more. SALT WHISTLE BAY hasn't really fired as yet but there are reasons for thinking a better effort might be forthcoming today, with the drop in grade a major plus (has a good record in the grade).
