Forecasts

Our Charlie Brown (6/4), Vaulted (4/1), Rey Loopy (4/1), Aelius (9/2), Hollywood Harry (8/1), Pepys (10/1), Kiribati (14/1), Lady Molly (20/1), Harbour Lightning (33/1)

Verdict

Rey Loopy will rightly be popular under his penalty after last week's easy win at Newcastle, but his only run on turf was disappointing and he has to prove he can adapt. Preference, then, is for C&D winner OUR CHARLIE BROWN, who was just touched off at Carlisle earlier this week and can race off the same mark. Vaulted should be noted in the market on her reappearance, while Hollywood Harry is getting better and may figure.
