Forecasts

Rock Dj (10/3), Divilabother (7/2), Party In The Park (4/1), Stylish Recruit (17/2), Do Ye Wanna (17/2), Getaway Master (9/1), Balking (10/1), Eire Street (12/1), Asa (18/1), Woodview Lad (50/1)

A tight handicap made even trickier by the apparent lack of pace, and it could be worth chancing BALKING, who's entitled to come on plenty for his reappearance at Ayr. Low-mileage pair Party In The Park and Rock DJ may make more impact with their sights lowered.
