Forecasts

Shalaa Asker (6/4), Newyorkstateofmind (11/4), Golden Dragon (16/5), Buy Me Back (7/2), Second Collection (4/1), Centurion Song (9/2), Vandad (11/2), Outrage (12/1)

Verdict

Having been heavily backed, SHALAA ASKER shaped well behind Newyorkstateofmind over 5.7f here a week ago and he looks a good bet to reverse the form in first-time cheekpieces. Buy Me Back arrives on the back of a personal best and completes the shortlist.

  1. SHALAA ASKER
  2. NEWYORKSTATEOFMIND
  3. BUY ME BACK
