Forecasts

Silver Flare (9/4), Cartagena (10/3), Rosy Lemon (4/1), Stop The Traffic (9/2), The Merciful (7/1), Hat Furious (10/1), Pomozelous (12/1), Gold De Grace (28/1), Count Your Chances (40/1)

14:23 Vaal - 7 August 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

SILVER FLARE is just about the best hope here. The Merciful is most likely the main danger, while Hat Furious can win the battle for minor honours.
