Forecasts

Yes And Yes (10/3), Empty Nest (7/2), Top Of The Bay (9/2), Uncle Mac (13/2), Lady Hamilton (7/1), Great Ballinboris (15/2), Lucky Soldier (12/1), Deep Strato (16/1), Stonegate (50/1), Hey Brother (100/1)

EMPTY NEST has really found his feet this season and showed a good attitude when getting up late to score at Newcastle last time so is fancied to defy a 3 lb weight rise with that form also having been franked. Top of The Bay has started life well with Sam England but could have to settle for runner-up spot once more, while Yes And Yes and Uncle Mac can both have a say too.
