Forecasts

Italian Spirit (6/4), An Tailliur (3/1), Lunar Sovereign (11/2), Kankin (6/1), South Mountain (11/1), Turpin Gold (11/1), Just A Whim (40/1), Samblucky (80/1), Ofthesea (200/1)

ITALIAN SPIRIT shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up on debut at Ascot, the effort of coming from a poor position in a tactical race just finding him out late on, and he's taken to go one better. Turpin Gold also shaped well from a poor position when third at Fakenham and is the obvious threat. An Tailliur is a newcomer to note.
