Forecasts

Melody Of Scotland (9/4), Taxmeifyoucan (7/2), Only Orsenfoolsies (4/1), Carrigmoorna Matt (5/1), Old Salt (13/2), Meldrum Lad (15/2), Attention Seaker (12/1), Nicely Indeed (14/1), Eviscerating (50/1)

Verdict

Attention Seeker would be interesting if supported from a handy mark, and when bearing in mind her Flat form in relation to Only Orsenfoolsies earlier this year. The latter arrives hoping to pick up where he left off in this sphere, and is shortlisted. However, the suggestion is MELODY OF SCOTLAND, who loves it here and is still improving. Taxmeifyoucan could get heavily involved, while Nicely Indeed is another who would be interesting if backed.
  1. Melody Of Scotland
  2. Only Orsenfoolsies
  3. Taxmeifyoucan
