Forecasts

Angel Bleu (2/1), Banana (11/4), Aldbourne (11/2), Mohi (7/1), Mr Professor (8/1), Like A Lion (14/1), Raging (20/1), Haymaker (33/1), Arlecchino's Gift (80/1), Therehegoes (125/1)

BANANA showed a fair amount of ability when beaten just under 2 lengths at Newmarket on debut 11 days ago and she can put that experience to good use up against mostly newcomers. Well-bred colt Angel Bleu is the other with experience having shown something to work on at Leicester, with speedily-bred Mohi making most appeal of the debutants.
