Forecasts

Emblem Empire (10/11), Gaassee (9/4), Master Of Souls (9/1), Almaan (10/1), Cu Chulainn (12/1), Victory Roll (33/1), Smooth Connection (100/1), Rogue Power (150/1)

EMBLEM EMPIRE looks tough to beat after a very encouraging debut at Kempton last month. He looks the type to improve for that effort and is difficult to oppose. Well bred newcomer Gaassee may give him most to think about on debut. Master of Souls looks the best alternative.
