Forecasts

Dukedom (2/1), Badr (10/3), Kodiac Sign (7/2), Western Writer (9/2), Delorean (9/1), Federal Street (16/1), Islay Of Anglesey (22/1), Time Step (25/1), Naga Eye (33/1), Gold Splash (40/1), Duly Amazed (66/1), The Spotlight Kid (100/1), Prince of Speed (100/1), Cable Mountain (125/1), Glenister (150/1), Singapore Flyer (200/1)

Preference is for KODIAC SIGN, who is in good hands and appeals as the type to progress from his Doncaster reappearance effort. Dukedom and Delorean head the list of dangers.
