Forecasts

King Of Tsavo (10/3), Shady Mcgee (4/1), Saratoga Gold (5/1), Marsabit (6/1), Smart Qibili (15/2), Autumn Twilight (8/1), Secret Haunt (12/1), Babajan (16/1), Sky Blue Thinking (25/1), Beijing Billy (28/1), Deep Impression (50/1)

A competitive nursery that could go the way of MARSABIT, who overcame trouble in running to score by a narrow margin over C&D last time. Handicap-debutants Secret Haunt and King of Tsavo both represent top stables and look open to improvement, so they're just two of several dangers to the selection.
