Forecasts

Lightning Touch (2/1), Pique' (5/2), Not Now Nathaniel (9/2), Billiegee (9/2), Timeless Charm (8/1), Idyllic (25/1), Fleur De Mer (28/1)

PIQUE''s latest Yarmouth fourth came in a competitive Class 3 event and she might be able to make her class tell in this slightly lower grade. Lightning Touch shaped well at Wolverhampton last time and rates an obvious danger.
