Forecasts

Dubai Welcome (5/4), Hasty Sailor (11/4), Lower Street (15/2), Pearl Beach (8/1), Vino Victrix (10/1), Graphite (16/1), Noble Masquerade (16/1), Sea Appeal (28/1)

HASTY SAILOR was given a considerate reappearance after 6 months off when third here 6 weeks ago and looks ready to resume his progress off a fair-looking mark. This does look competitive though, with Lower Street and Vino Victrix heading the dangers.
