Forecasts

Sunset And Vine (6/5), Monsieur Jumbo (3/1), Bold Ribb (7/2), Maguro (15/2), Prince Achille (16/1), Dark Island (20/1), Dan De Man Can (25/1), Dougies Dream (66/1), Jonny Boxer (100/1), Waud House (250/1), Callsign Phoenix (300/1), Fighting Chance (300/1)

Those with experience don't set the bar too high, so Roger Varian's Ribchester colt BOLD RIBB is taken to go in at the first time of asking. Fellow-debutant Maguro is also fancied to go well for Archie Watson, with Sunset And Vine appealing as the pick of those with form already on the board.
