Forecasts

Light Speed (8/11), Romilda (13/2), Enough Already (15/2), Tiger Beetle (8/1), Expressionless (8/1), Avon Light (14/1), Blue Universe (22/1), Dembe (25/1), Renardeau (40/1), Pride Of Nepal (80/1)

LIGHT SPEED had a bit in hand when defying a penalty at Wolverhampton and can complete the hat-trick on his handicap bow. Romilda caught the eye at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago and is next best ahead of Tiger Beetle and Enough Already.
