Forecasts

Flower Of Scotland (6/4), George Ridsdale (5/2), Esspeegee (10/3), Hua Mulan (11/2), King Charles (17/2), Madeeh (17/2), Nataleena (11/1), Vintage Rose (22/1), Jan De Heem (33/1), Ghayyar (40/1)

ESSPEEGEE bounced back to form when runner-up over C&D last month and can add to his tally over this C&D. George Ridsdale and Flower of Scotland are feared most.
