Forecasts

Thunderous (4/9), Saint Of Katowice (9/2), Arthur's Court (6/1), Genesius (14/1), Bodyline (20/1), America First (33/1), Ingleby Command (33/1), Yorkshire Grey (66/1), Grimbold (80/1)

An interesting opener for the juveniles with the penalised Thunderous expected to employ similar forcing tactics as when winning at Doncaster and the Richard Fahey-trained Saint Of Katowice almost certain to appreciate stepping up in trip. With the Prescott horses hitting form during the past 7-10 days, Bodyline appears to be the pick of the newcomers and the market should hold the key to his chances. However, we'll chance the more experienced ARTHUR'S COURT who is progressing steadily for Hugo Palmer, showing a decent level of form at Newmarket (7f) latest.
