Forecasts

Giant (3/1), Sarafina Mshairi (7/2), South Shore (5/1), Winter Crown (11/2), Balon D'or (13/2), B Associates (7/1), General Assembly (8/1), Count D'Orsay (16/1), Hallowed Time (25/1), Twirler (28/1), Red Walls (80/1)

Plenty are in with a shout but the vote goes to SOUTH SHORE who didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth at Hamilton last time and can capitalise on a 2 lb lower mark here. B Associates is feared most on the back of a good recent Lingfield second, although Chelmsford scorer Giant and in-form pair Twirler and Winter Crown need factoring in too.
