Forecasts

Tiempo Star (5/2), Fozzie Bear (3/1), Sydney Street (5/1), Incumbent (11/2), Bolton Abbey (11/2), Like A Lion (11/1), Sharp Combo (25/1)

INCUMBENT found only one too good having put up a bold bid from the front on nursery debut at Kempton a month ago and, with further improvement expected, he's narrowly preferred to Bolton Abbey, whose opening mark seems reasonable based on what he's achieved. Fozzie Bear is another one to have on the radar.
