Forecasts

Sterling Stamp (11/10), Broughtons Gold (9/4), Never In Red (7/2), Tenfold (6/1), Stony Look (15/2), Morlaix (14/1), Island Nation (20/1), Tazaman (25/1), Dancing Girl (25/1), Licit (33/1), Mungo's Quest (40/1), The Fitzpiers Lion (40/1), Rock Of Redmond (50/1), Scorpio's Dream (100/1)

BROUGHTONS GOLD outran his odds on debut in what looks strong form for this level and he's taken to improve over this extra furlong. The distance should also be a benefit to Sterling Stamp and there's little between the pair. Stony Look represents a stable whose runners tend to improve for their debut and holds every chance while Tenfold is the pick of the newcomers.
