Forecasts

Alhzeem (5/4), Endifaa (4/1), Al Nayyir (6/1), Benmalek (13/2), Panoshoshic (12/1), Mezzotinto (16/1), Sheringham (20/1), Branwell (22/1), Light Beam (25/1), Ibndubai (28/1), Seemar (28/1), Strong Rhythm (33/1), Sultan Al Neelain (40/1), Last Light (80/1), Jacksonville (80/1)

BENMALEK has good claims. Alhzeem can build on his debut run and chase him home, while Al Nayyir is an interesting recruit for his powerful yard.
