Forecasts

Beauty Crescent (9/4), Crispy Cat (5/2), Polar Bear (7/2), Borletti (4/1), National Question (9/2), Holdonfordearlife (11/1), Calgary Mounty (40/1)

Ger Lyons' BEAUTY CRESCENT is bred to be useful so he is fancied to go in at the first time of asking in a maiden where the market should prove highly informative. Jessica Harrington's Polar Bear also takes the eye on paper and is next on the list ahead of Jim Bolger's Fracas colt National Question.
