Forecasts

Dee Capo (11/8), Charming Fortune (9/4), Meet My Loreley (10/3), Whispering Jesse (10/1), Menrva (14/1), Bigira (25/1), Marys Call (25/1), Disco Boy (33/1), Yorkshire Escape (33/1), Rodney (40/1), Work Man Jimmy (50/1), Is She Now (66/1), Doyen Lady (66/1), Haley Grove Bonnie (66/1), Joe Hannigan (80/1), Silver Midnight (100/1), Going Easy (100/1), Lady Goliath (125/1)

CHARMING FORTUNE cost six figures on the back of a promising run between the flags and, having joined a shrewd operation, he might be up to making a successful Rules debut. Dee Capo and Meet My Loreley look the chief dangers.
