Forecasts

Nazron (4/7), Hot Front (4/1), Tan Rapido (9/2), Pulpit (8/1), Meet Me In Meraki (16/1), Chapman (18/1), Piper's Fort (22/1), Dark Fandango (28/1), Dadas Boy (66/1)

NAZRON impressed with the way he travelled for all he couldn't justify strong market support on his Nottingham debut and, with plenty of improvement anticipated, he's selected to get off the mark at the second time of asking. Tan Rapido fared best of the newcomers when runner-up at Newcastle 4 weeks ago and must enter the reckoning, along with Hot Front, who should appreciate this drop back in grade.
