Forecasts

The Entertainer (9/4), Geodesic (9/4), She's Trouble (6/1), Reigning Profit (6/1), Don Julio (17/2), Albion Square (11/1), Gallow Hill (25/1), Stickyourneckout (28/1), The Smull (40/1), Gregor Mendel (125/1)

No surprise if this went to a newcomer, and THE ENTERTAINER makes plenty of appeal on paper, being a 110,000 gns son of Caravaggio. She's Trouble and Reigning Profit are other likely types seeing a racecourse for the first time.
