Forecasts

Burscough (11/4), Symbol of Hope (11/4), Taylored (3/1), Ginato (4/1), Keepherlit (11/2), Bankrolled (10/1), Midnight Stripper (11/1), The Quiet Rebel (22/1), Canterbury Tales (28/1), Kevin The Minion (33/1)

SYMBOL OF HOPE has been knocking on the door all year and his turn can't be far away. He's proven on turf and looks the one to beat here. Taylored could be forgiven his latest run at Beverley and he may bounce back. Burscough went very close at Ayr last time and he isn't out of it either.
