Forecasts

Mr Glass (15/8), Skytastic (6/1), Fine Casting (6/1), Cossack Dancer (6/1), Fletch (7/1), Orbys Legend (8/1), Becky The Boo (12/1), Parramount (12/1), Diamon Des Flos (18/1), Phantomoftheoscar (33/1), Henschke (50/1), Global Frontier (200/1), Stalin's Script (300/1)

Verdict

A field of newcomers, with MR GLASS just about the most persuasive on paper given his sister was good enough to win at the first time of asking in this code. Fletch's dam didn't show a lot on the track, but her brother Un Atout was smart and connections went to €250,000 to acquire him as a 3-y-o, so he has to be feared.
