Forecasts

World Famous (2/7), Rick Dalton (6/1), Nemean (10/1), Conquer The Breeze (18/1), The Rebel Breen (20/1), Mosaaheb (20/1), Flash Of Dawn (28/1), King Arthurs Sword (50/1), Diliymi (50/1), Danesfort (50/1), Riccardi Medici (66/1), Gig Harbor (100/1), An Madra Mor (125/1), Holding Aces (150/1), Just Godwin (200/1)

This race revolves around WORLD FAMOUS, who pulled nicely clear of the rest when runner-up on return in a maiden at the Curragh last month and he remains open to improvement. Nemean is appealing on paper and it will look significant of the market speaks in his favour, while Rick Dalton is likely to benefit from this step back up in trip and he is best of the rest.
