Forecasts

Doctor Nuno (15/8), Kingsley Klarion (7/2), Quarry Beach (7/1), Fard (15/2), Breath Of Spring (8/1), Secret Potion (9/1), Blue Cable (12/1), Back From Dubai (14/1), Toolmaker (22/1), Presumptuous (22/1), Cappadocia (28/1), Jeffrey Harris (40/1)

The suggestion here is John Butler's KINGSLEY KLARION, who got back on track when runner-up over C&D just over 3 weeks ago and has every chance of going a place better especially if the market speaks in his favour. Doctor Nuno rates as the main threat having gone off a bit too hard over 1m last month, ahead of Fard and Breath of Spring.
