Forecasts

Sword Exceed (7/2), Monsieur Fantaisie (4/1), Dark Design (5/1), The Tron (11/2), San Juan (13/2), Bernard Spierpoint (7/1), Racy Stacey (11/1), Hope Springs (11/1), Kraka (14/1), Bungledupinblue (14/1), Owens Lad (22/1), Oasis Law (33/1), Perfect Symphony (40/1), Woo Woo (40/1)

SWORD EXCEED caught the eye at Lingfield last time after returning from a break and he should be a bit sharper tonight. He looks the one to beat. Hope Springs is running well and she looks to be in the mix. Bungledupinblue is a solid each-way proposition too. Woo Woo would be of interest if there is market support following an interesting yard move.
