Forecasts

Extensio (3/1), Zileo (18/5), Firstman (13/2), Mads Black Eights (7/1), Anyonecanhaveitall (7/1), Adamaris (9/1), Turf Range (10/1), Ballycommon Chapel (14/1), S'all Good Man (16/1), Hidden Land (16/1), Too Bright (18/1), Shona Mea (18/1), Contrapposto (20/1), Fox Fearless (22/1), Ghumama (28/1), Secret Sea (28/1), Meritorious (33/1)

MADS BLACK EIGHTS was first and second under Sam Ewing here last month and is taken to extend her run of good form and bag another win. Extensio will be a threat if he can carry over recent turf form to the polytrack. Anyonecanhaveitall arrives fit from a decent spell hurdling and could play a part, as could last winter's dual course scorer Adamaris if he's ready to roll after a break.
