Forecasts

Teed Up (3/1), Agitare (10/3), Out On Friday (9/2), Bopedro (6/1), Maker Of Kings (13/2), Insignia Of Rank (17/2), Darkened (9/1), Lord Park (10/1), Katiba (12/1), High Altitude (18/1), Multamis (22/1), Sod's Law (100/1)

BOPEDRO should be all the better for last month's return/stable debut and is taken to capitalise on this drop in grade. Teed Up is open to further improvement now handicapping, with Lord Park and Maker of Kings others to note in an interesting race.
