Forecasts

Eternal Halo (11/4), Jilly Cooper (11/4), Bond Power (11/4), Silky Wilkie (11/2), Cotai Class (15/2), Ercolano (80/1)

JILLY COOPER looked a fairly useful prospect when scoring at Hamilton and is fancied to follow up at the chief expense of Eternal Halo, who made an encouraging start when fourth at the same track and seems sure to step forward now. Cotai Class also showed up well on his first start at Newcastle and can have a say too now switched to turf.
