Forecasts

Nocte Volatus (15/8), Ladronne (5/2), Everyday Champagne (10/3), Mint Gold (8/1), Brayhill (17/2), Dalyotin (10/1), Innovated (33/1)

A case can be made for a few of these but NOCTE VOLATUS figures on a handy-looking mark and is taken to gain a deserved first success of the season on the back of a wind op. Everyday Champagne hit the ground running for his new yard when scoring at Ayr and is feared most ahead of course-scorer Ladronne.
