Forecasts

Macs Dilemma (85/40), Red Evelyn (3/1), Astrophysics (13/2), Cents In The City (13/2), Amelia R (10/1), Babe Alicious (10/1), Sir Hector (14/1), Seaforth (16/1), Apache Charm (33/1), Koola Buala (33/1), Isabella Ruby (125/1)

MACS DILEMMA ran up to his best despite a less-than-ideal trip when runner-up over C&D 18 days ago, so he makes most appeal. Cents In The City enters calculations following a good third in the same race, while Astrophysics is another to consider.
