Forecasts

World Of Dreams (11/4), Itsnotwhatyouthink (6/1), Gulliver Collonges (6/1), Bangers And Cash (7/1), Bembridge (8/1), Whydah Gally (10/1), Precious (10/1), Beauport (12/1), Coronado Joe (14/1), Ask Politely (16/1), Joe Warbrick (18/1), Manhattan Bullet (20/1), Crowd Of Stars (50/1), Mis Casey (300/1)

The market will no doubt reveal plenty here but Anthony Honeyball has his string in great nick and has won two of the last three renewals so his Midnight Legend filly PRECIOUS is taken to make a winning start. Whydah Gally appeals as a likely sort for the Tizzard team so is feared most, although Bangers And Cash and Beauport are other newcomers who could have a say in an intriguing bumper.
