Ballyare^p,t²¹

Forecasts

Night On Earth (4/1), Ornate (4/1), Ballyare (9/2), Melodic Charm (5/1), Look Out Louis (6/1), Miss Nay Never (10/1), Buniann (12/1), Outrage (12/1)

BALLYARE failed to repeat the form of his Wolverhampton win back there 3 weeks ago but is well worth another chance having been left poorly placed. Similar comments apply to Night On Earth, who had excuses at Southwell last time after stumbling at the start, while Look Out Louis is also of interest back from a break.
