Forecasts

Keen On (1/1), Cubao (6/4), Golden Grove (9/4), More Overdraught (4/1), Amanofhisword (11/2), Granny Frankham (10/1), George Edward (16/1), Sharaina (33/1)

The well-bred KEEN ON looks capable of getting the better of his rivals in the concluding bumper. The unraced gelding is related to a couple of useful performers and he can take this at the chief expense of More Overdraught who represents a useful stable on debut. Third place can go to Golden Grove who's dam was a winner on the Flat.
