Forecasts

Dark Swansong (15/8), Hierarchy (11/4), Kitaab (13/2), Leuven Power (8/1), Account (8/1), Boafo Boy (10/1), Olympic Eagle (28/1), Klip Klopp (40/1), Pneumatic (80/1)

HIERARCHY was well supported and knew what was required when making a winning debut at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago, notably travelling well. Open to improvement, he looks sure to go well in his bid to make it 2-2 under a penalty. Newcomer Leuven Power makes plenty of appeal on paper and is worth a look. Dark Swansong and Boafo Boy complete the shortlist.
