Forecasts

Scott Key (10/3), Vega's Muse (5/1), Tam Lin (13/2), Bishopton (13/2), Ribee (8/1), Annie's Angel (8/1), Refreshment (17/2), The Marty Party (10/1), Guilty Pleasure (11/1), Merchants Arch (11/1), Desmond Castle (12/1), Ohmali (22/1), Wish This (33/1), School Of Athens (50/1), Eagles Dream (50/1), Breath Of You (66/1), Stiorra (80/1)

BISHOPTON ended his 2-y-o campaign on the up and this mark looks within range on return back on turf. Tam Lin was better than ever when successful at Bellewstown last time so he's on the shortlist, with Merchants Arch also of interest at the foot of the weights back over 1m.
