Forecasts

Grand Canal (6/5), Monsaraz (3/1), Clifftop Heaven (11/2), Greengage (13/2), Vintage Rose (16/1), Half Bolly (16/1), Flower Power (18/1), Vampish (28/1), Gainsboro Grey (33/1), The Rocket Park (40/1), Strict Order (40/1), Vertice (50/1), Take That (50/1), Midnight Warrior (66/1), Gloryella (125/1)

A low-key race which can go to GRAND CANAL, who is in the minority of runners that arrive here in any sort of recommendable form. Even the imposition of a 13lb higher mark for winning last time out isn't enough to put off a play in this modest company. Monsaraz needs a personal best in terms of ratings but has the ability to be a leading light in this motley line up; Vintage Rose is the pick of her stable's trio of intended runners and, along with Vampish, she completes the shortlist.
