Forecasts

Verdict

Ancient Astronaut and Socialites Red have been running well but are high enough in the weights for now. Top Of The Bank has to be feared with his rider in such outstanding form. STORM MELODY acts on any ground so will be ready for whatever the unpredictable weather may throw at him. He will find this a lot easier than the two races he contested this season. Fran Berry is usually a significant booking by the yard and his presence adds confidence that the selection is worthy of support.
  1. Storm Melody
  2. Top of The Bank
  3. Ancient Astronaut
