Forecasts

Sporting Glance (3/1), Penny Perfect (7/2), Faceman (9/2), Following Orders (9/2), Our Zebo (5/1), Boston Rajj (11/2)

Difficult to discount any of the sextet but PENNY PERFECT was much improved when making her second start a winning one over C&D last month and she looks the type to go on improving. Faceman has been in fine form under positive tactics and could be dangerous if able to dictate again, while the forecast rain won't inconvenience Sporting Glance who was much improved when off the mark at Galway 11 days ago. Our Zebo deserves an honourable mention given his record at this track.
