Forecasts
Pearl's Pirate (9/4), Summer In Milan (5/2), Ferret Jeeter (13/2), Inspector Lynley (15/2), Nowyouvebinandunit (10/1), Ballyhiho (11/1), Well Presented (12/1), Vorderman (16/1), Ma Belle Noire (22/1), Glorious Mist (80/1)
The vote goes to BALLYHIHO, who took a step forward upped to 23.7f on her handicap debut at Newcastle and this slightly shorter trip could prove to be ideal. Summer In Milan is an obvious danger on the back of his all-the-way C&D success, while Nowyouvebinandunit looks the pick of the Neil Mulholland-trained duo and she is also accorded respect, along with Ma Belle Noire, who has slipped to a dangerous mark.
