Forecasts

Montsarrat (11/10), Just A Penny (15/8), Grand Argentier (5/1), Court Poet (8/1), Bay Of Poets (20/1), Yakeen (25/1)

COURT POET is still lightly raced and looks worth chancing on his first outing for a new yard, though this is a competitive race despite only attracting 6 confirmed runners. Just A Penny and Montsarrat are sure to be thereabouts too.
