Forecasts

Perfect Swiss (3/1), Pacino (10/3), Anif (9/2), Always Fearless (6/1), Traveller (7/1), Catch My Breath (10/1), Clay Regazzoni (10/1), Twin Appeal (28/1), Ice Age (100/1)

PACINO looks ready to end his losing run off his reduced mark judged on his last 2 starts so gets the vote over Perfect Swiss, who enhanced his excellent record here when a narrow winner last month. Traveller looked an unlucky loser at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago and is another to consider.
