Forecasts

Far From A Ruby (3/1), Biplane (10/3), Spice Store (9/2), Audit (11/2), Thunderhill (13/2), Monhammer (8/1), One Last Hug (14/1), Pasha Bay (150/1)

AUDIT shaped quite well at Catterick recently and could open his account today. The unexposed Thunderhill made a solid start to his handicap career when a close fourth at Redcar and has the potential to build on that, while Far From A Ruby could also have a part to play if a return to this venue sparks a revival.
