Forecasts

Na Scoitear (6/4), Camacho Star (7/2), Bella Kopella (4/1), Trojan Legend (11/2), Ok Pal (17/2), Carmentis (28/1), Must Catch Up (33/1), Super Spy (50/1)

NA SCOITEAR shaped as if still in good form when fourth at Wolverhampton and is worth persevering at this trip. He's preferred to Camacho Star and Bella Kopella, who are much improved since handicapping but are returning from a break.
