Forecasts

Paradise Lake (11/4), My Amigo (7/2), Shamrokh (5/1), Lunar Deity (6/1), Prerogative (8/1), Wicker (8/1), Ross Raith Rover (12/1), Medicean El Diablo (16/1), Man Of Verve (25/1)

Verdict

PARADISE LAKE doesn't look entirely straightforward but he has relatively few miles on the clock compared to many of these and the handicapper has given him a real chance. Wicker comes in with a similar profile and gives the impression she's on a workable mark while Shamrokh has been running well on the all-weather this winter and can get involved for minor honours.
  1. Paradise Lake
  2. Wicker
  3. Shamrokh
