Forecasts

United Front (5/6), Habit Rouge (2/1), Songkran (7/1), Society Red (12/1)

Verdict

UNITED FRONT cemented his good start for the Mick Appleby yard when scoring over 1m at Newcastle last month and is selected to make light of a 4 lb rise and follow up, perhaps at the main expense of Richard Fahey's Society Red.

  1. UNITED FRONT (USA)
  2. SOCIETY RED
  3. SONGKRAN (IRE)
