Forecasts

Gnat Alley (5/4), Tadita Twitch (11/4), Burning Emotion (11/2), Eponina (13/2), Nurseclaire (17/2)

A 2-lb rise for TADITA TWITCH's success at Ayr in April seems lenient, particularly when considering the runner-up shaped well at Ripon earlier this week, so she gets the nod ahead of Burning Emotion, who looks the type to make a better 3yo but hasn't been dealt with leniently by the handicapper. Eponina is a danger if she's allowed her own way in front.
