Forecasts

Ramdon Rocks (16/5), My Boy Jack (16/5), Eldeyaar (9/2), Wade's Magic (6/1), Heer's Sadie (10/1), Ustath (11/1), Contactless (11/1), Soi Dao (14/1), Jack Ryan (40/1), Isle Of Hope (40/1), Doc Sportello (66/1)

RAMDON ROCKS confirmed previous promise when opening his account at Lingfield last week and may be capable of better yet. He can score again. Eldeyaar and Soi Dao are feared most.
