Forecasts

Burning It Up (5/2), Velvet Vulcan (11/4), Snow Dragon (7/2), Parish Star (9/2), Kingofthegame (6/1), Rock N Roll Champ (13/2), Time Was (13/2), Breadalbane Lass (10/1), Gonnino (10/1), Diamond Trilogy (16/1), Rightbackatyou (16/1), Quickasican (40/1), Steel Soldier (50/1)

VELVET VULCAN is still low mileage over timber and only narrowly failed to open his account in this sphere at Ayr earlier this month. He makes plenty of appeal. Rock N Roll Champ and Snow Dragon should also go well.
