Forecasts

Virak (8/13), In Arrears (11/4), Flaming Charmer (5/1), Queen Olivia (6/1), Silvergrove (10/1), Irish Thistle (66/1)

In Arrears arrives in cracking form and has youth on her side, so don't ruled out a follow-up to her easy Exeter success. However, VIRAK is a seasoned campaigner who has done it at a higher level and clearly retains a fair bit of ability. He is taken to score, with Silvergrove perhaps the one to chase them home.
