Forecasts

King Viktor (4/5), Beat The Storm (5/1), Peppercorn (9/1), Tequila Tequila (12/1), In The Genes (14/1), Lanika (16/1), Pool Bar Lady (22/1), Westshield (25/1), Risky Business (33/1), Vive La Danse (50/1)

KING VICTOR's handicap win at Southwell rather stands in this lowly 3-y-o contest and, assuming he can continue the good work on turf, he should take some stopping. Lanika is exposed but likely to give her running, with Beat The Storm a potential improver on handicap/turf debut.
