Forecasts

Foxfire Glow (11/10), Scorsese (7/4), Howaya C D And E (10/3), Kalko Blue (12/1), Another Nightmare (40/1), Fisichella (50/1), Hees Dynamite (80/1), Struell Duke (150/1)

Verdict

HOWAYA C D AND E should prove well suited by this return to further having taken second late on over 2m3f here last time and she can edge out Foxfire Glow, who holds the edge on form but wasn't at his very best when runner-up here last month. Hurdling newcomer Scorsese brings winning point form and needs considering too.

  2. FOXFIRE GLOW (FR)
