Forecasts

Matty Too (10/3), Miss Calculation (4/1), Caleta Sunrise (11/2), Gentle Ellen (7/1), Clarets Glory (8/1), The Gay Blade (12/1), Raydoun (12/1), Baileys Liberty (12/1), Golden Rainbow (18/1), Bonito Cavalo (20/1)

CALETA SUNRISE pulled clear of the others when second in a novice at Catterick last time and a mark of 66 looks fair returned to handicap company, so she's preferred to Clarets Glory , who's respected back on turf. Matty Too is another one worthy of consideration.
