Forecasts

Letterston Lady (11/4), Ginger Mail (11/4), Inferno Sacree (10/3), Cuban Cigar (9/2), Inca Prince (7/1), Glentruan (8/1), Well Planted (10/1), Enemy Coast Ahead (33/1)

Verdict

GINGER MAIL has had a solid campaign and he won't need to pull out much more for first-time cheekpieces to get his head back in front. The reliable Cuban Cigar bagged a nice prize at Musselburgh last month and is likely to go well again, while Letterston Lady might have needed last month's comeback run at Market Rasen and is an interesting one for handicaps.
