Forecasts

Highland Hunter (1/3), Stoney Rover (7/2), Weakfield (6/1), Cloghouge Boy (14/1), Toi Storey (25/1), Carry On Scorpion (33/1), Barfly (66/1), Nine O Three (125/1)

The top pair on the card both carry penalties for last-time-out success and the vote sits with C&D winner STONEY ROVER, who showed significant improvement for the step up to this trip and can find more. Useful bumper sort Highland Hunter made a winner start over timber at Ayr on heavy ground last month and should make a good contest of this. Toi Storey can grab some minor money having run well behind the selection last time.
