Forecasts

Vocito (4/1), Equilove (5/1), Virtual Hug (13/2), Zozimus (15/2), Moonhall Girl (15/2), Helvic Princess (15/2), Omakase (10/1), Dearg Jazz (14/1), Tiger Mylk (14/1), Creative Mojo (22/1), Dixon Line (25/1), Cisco Disco (28/1), Britzka (33/1), Cornish Rock (50/1), Benkogambit (80/1), No Nay Forever (100/1)

VOCITO is well handicapped on his runner-up effort at Cork and a couple of steadily-run nurseries haven't suited him since. With the prospect of this being a well-run race, be is given the vote in favour of Virtual Hug and Equilove.
