Forecasts

Temper Trap (6/4), Arkenstaar (85/40), Hashtagnotions (6/1), Uncle Liam (9/1), Darbucks (10/1), Shahnaz (10/1), Storm On Jura (11/1), Ballitore (22/1), Bring Her Home (125/1)

TEMPER TRAP is a prolific winner who capitalised on his reduced mark at Musselburgh despite reluctance to pass leaders. Hashtagnotions showed improved form when winning at Ayr in first-time cheekpieces, settling better and staying on strongly. Shahnaz boasts three wins at this track and should appreciate returning to her favoured venue.
