Forecasts

Sipahsalar (2/1), Honour Your Dreams (3/1), Swanland (4/1), Wildfell (15/2), Diamond Dandy (9/1), Urban Sprawl (11/1), Derwent Boy (16/1), Prairie Falcon (18/1)

A £130,000 breeze-up buy, SIPAHSALAR showed promise without being given a hard time when third in a Leicester minor event 18 days ago and, with that experience under his belt, he's fancied to take a step forward and come out on top at the second attempt. Honour Your Dreams is more experienced than most and feared, whilst Swanland and Wildfell are both interesting newcomers to note.
