Forecasts

Royal Red Persian (11/4), Punters Poet (9/2), Take A Turn (6/1), Sweet Affection (6/1), Flindt (17/2), Macaban City (9/1), Kartayaz (12/1), Lady Of Luxury (22/1), Secret Wizard (22/1), Monsieur Piquer (25/1), Quiet Desire (25/1), Vivalicious (28/1), Pass The Ball (33/1), Van Wert (40/1), Grove Hill (50/1)

It's perhaps worth taking a chance on a switch to Denis Hogan turning around the fortunes of SECRET WIZARD as he's potentially well treated on the form he showed here last winter. Last-time-out course seconds Punters Poet and Sweet Affection head the dangers.
