Forecasts

Love Mystery (5/2), Rockfire (11/4), Kodiac Blue (7/1), Government (15/2), True Warfare (9/1), Justcallmepete (10/1), Rogue Star (11/1), Murphy's Dream (14/1), Billy McGarry (22/1), Ballynaveen Boy (80/1), Timeless Touch (80/1), Sonny Brown (250/1)

It would be no surprise were one of the newcomers to emerge on top here, with LOVE MYSTERY, a 300,000 gns colt br Frankel, the most appealing of them on paper. Government, Kodiac Blue and True Warfare are likely-looking types, too, and it will be interesting to see how they all fare in the betting. Justcallmepete showed promise on debut at Leicester and is the pick of those with experience.
