Forecasts

Tyger Bay (6/5), Jeans Maite (9/4), Shymay (17/2), Aguerooo (9/1), Archimedes (10/1), Navajo Dawn (28/1), Secret Identity (33/1), Due A Diamond (50/1), Trulove (100/1)

TYGER BAY looked better than this level when scoring in good style at Kempton last week so is fancied to follow up. Jeans Maite will prove suited by a return to the minimum trip after going off too hard over 6f at Wolverhampton and is clear second choice.
