Forecasts

Hurry Up (4/11), First Prophet (9/1), Surge (11/1), Uncle Hamed (16/1), Chosen Mark (18/1), Worldly Wise (20/1), Hawa Bilady (22/1), Anbar (25/1), Ajmal (40/1)

HURRY UP is very much the one to beat based on form and can follow up his recent C&D win. Well-bred newcomer Surge is worth a market check for a yard that can fire first-time up, while Uncle Hamed might be tough to keep out of the minor places.
