Forecasts

Sibaaq (7/4), Ugo Gregory (11/4), Zumurud (9/2), Broken Spear (17/2), Crown Princess (12/1), Proud Archi (14/1), End Zone (25/1), Harry Love (28/1), Fennaan (50/1), Al Suil Eile (66/1)

SIBAAQ already has a C&D victory to his name and arrives on the back of an excellent second at Newmarket, so he's fancied to resume winning ways back in the North. Crown Princess could be hard to peg back if allowed her own way in front, while Ugo Gregory is running consistently well at present, so he should be thereabouts again.
