Forecasts

Hamaki (3/1), Majestic Glory (4/1), Fast Response (9/2), My Ambition (11/2), Buoyant (13/2), Mount Snowdon (15/2), El Bodegon (11/1), Cephalus (12/1), Hodler (25/1)

This will likely fall to one of the 7 newcomers and HAMAKI appeals most on paper, as an expensive son of Churchill and a half-brother to a smart winner. Majestic Glory cost more than double the selection and this daughter of Frankel is highly respected too. Another newcomer El Bodegon, a brother to a high-class winner, completes the shortlist.
