Forecasts

Sir Edward Elgar (8/11), Il Bandito (6/4), Mashaan (12/1), Neon City (22/1), Lord Admirable (28/1), Subtle Innuendo (150/1), Mitcham Fair (200/1)

SIR EDWARD ELGAR finished nicely when third at Kempton on debut and, with plenty of improvement expected, can get the better of Il Bandito, who sets the standard but is more exposed. Debutant Neon City might prove the pick of the remainder.
