Forecasts

Seven Nation Army (13/8), Celtic Moon (5/2), Bold Commander (7/2), Margot Mae (7/1), I Ready (11/1), Eighteenth Smiles (12/1), Banks Of The Boyne (14/1), Winnie's Wish (22/1)

A competitive nursery but MARGOT MAE looks the pick on the form of her penultimate start, and she may get off the mark on return to softer conditions. The main danger is likely to be Seven Nation Army, who's weighted to reverse his narrow defeat at the hands of I Ready.
