Forecasts

Yojaari (8/13), Aratus (5/2), Unique Cut (10/3), Waleyfa (4/1), Mr Tambourine Man (8/1), Bluebird Day (9/1), Pearl Bay (14/1), Clownsman (25/1), Rooful (33/1), Ca Ne Fait Rien (50/1), Havana Cabana (100/1), Titaneasy (200/1), Girandole (200/1), Vice Royal (200/1)

This looks between penalised-winners ARATUS and Yojaari, who both looked useful prospects when winning their maiden/novice, the former preferred despite an 8-month absence. Waleyfa caught the eye at Wolverhampton on debut 3 weeks ago and is best of the others.
