Forecasts

Desert Quest (4/1), Muroor (9/2), Peerless Percy (5/1), Amourie (11/2), Castle View (9/1), Mistamel (10/1), Edgar Allan Poe (11/1), Framley Garth (12/1), Hellenista (14/1), Will He Dance (25/1), Cheese And Wine (66/1)

MISTAMEL and Muroor are the interesting duo here making their second start for new yards. The former shaped well at Beverley so receives the vote, with Peerless Percy perhaps best of the rest.
