Forecasts

So Sleepy (11/10), Reckon I'm Hot (18/5), Next Second (7/1), Storm Melody (7/1), Big Time Maybe (7/1), Field of View (15/2), Zous Baby (20/1), Lucy Lightfoot (50/1)

Verdict

SO SLEEPY is on a good mark and was unlucky not to win (met trouble) when runner-up at Lingfield last week, so she's a solid proposition in a thin race. Most of the others have something to prove but Storm Melody and Next Second could emerge as dangers.

  1. SO SLEEPY
  2. STORM MELODY
  3. NEXT SECOND
