Forecasts

Dutugamunu (15/8), Catch My Breath (11/2), Deb's Delight (6/1), Lunar Deity (15/2), Black Medick (10/1), Roman Spinner (12/1), Sky Lake (14/1), Winklemann (16/1), Quarry Beach (20/1), Pour La Victoire (22/1), Rhyme Scheme (28/1), Hibernian Warrior (100/1)

DUTUGAMUNU proved a different proposition after 5 months off when taking a C&D handicap in this headgear 5 weeks ago and he should have more to offer after just a handful of starts. Deb's Delight is probably in better heart than his form figures suggest and rates the main threat ahead of Winklemann, who went close here 2 weeks ago.
