Forecasts

Charm Offensive (3/1), Eternally Yours (7/2), Mega Yeats (11/2), Jessiemac (11/2), Calle Malva (11/2), Lissen To The Lady (6/1), The Delray Munky (8/1), Island Mahee (22/1), Fiadh (25/1), Pepite De Belle (33/1)

A case can be made for a few of these, but ETERNALLY YOURS stepped up on her comeback run when third at this track back in January and,with her mark easing a shade further, Donald Whillans' charge is put forward as the answer. Jessiemac arrives at the top of her game so she's fancied to give the selection most to think about, ahead of Charm Offensive and Lissen To The Lady.
