Forecasts

Marlay Park (9/4), Twilight Calls (5/2), Whenthedealinsdone (4/1), Mutasallem (11/1), Tacitus (11/1), Billy Mill (12/1), Crimson Sand (16/1), Hot Day (20/1), Grey Sparkle (25/1), Easy To Dream (33/1), White Lady (33/1), Harworth (66/1), Headora (100/1), Hazmat (100/1), So True (125/1), Thistleton (200/1)

MARLAY PARK has bumped into a couple of very useful juveniles in the shape of Minzaal and Mujbar and a repeat of the level achieved so far may well enable him to go one place better. Twilight Calls has attracted support both starts and ought to have more to offer, while Tacitus is a likely newcomer on paper.
