Forecasts

Purple Paddy (4/1), Lafontaine (4/1), Parknacilla (5/1), Van Dijk (8/1), Fivehundredmiles (8/1), Atalanta Queen (17/2), Susie Javea (11/1), Taramanda (14/1), Harlequin Rose (18/1), Misu Pete (22/1), Be Bold (40/1), Tellovoi (80/1), Isabella Mayson (100/1)

There is a handicap in TARAMANDA and she's chanced in first-time cheekpieces with the likelihood of a well-run race over this trip set to suit her. Parknacilla shaped up well again at Chelmsford last time and could be set for a big run if proving as good round here. Purple Paddy is also considered after bouncing back to form over C&D a fortnight ago.
