Forecasts

American Star (11/10), Withering (10/3), Zoltan Star (13/2), Farhh North (15/2), Rawyaan (14/1), My Ambition (16/1), King Of The Kippax (18/1), Bella Caelia (22/1), Cardinal Rouge (28/1)

WITHERING wasn't up to the Chesham at Royal Ascot but he looks more than capable of winning a race at this level and is narrowly preferred to Newbury-second American Star. Farhh North is a newcomer to note in the market.
