Forecasts

PUFFIN ISLAND caught the eye returning from a break at Kempton and looks a potential improver now stepping up to 1m, so she’s appealing as any. Stuart Williams has his team in cracking order and Baby Sham ought to give another good account, with C&D seller-winner Eyes completing the shortlist.
