Forecasts

Albahr (2/5), Tylos (15/2), Tudor (15/2), Hypersonical (11/1), Fast And Loose (14/1), Oh Great (25/1), Box To Box (25/1), Melos (80/1), Greatness Awaits (80/1), Vince Lombardi (125/1)

ALBAHR confirmed the promise of his opening second at York when going one better over this C&D last month and he looks up to defying a penalty. Tudor is sure to improve for this step up in trip and is second choice, though Hypersonical, Tylos and Fast And Loose are interesting newcomers.
