Forecasts

Amazing Emma (3/1), Teddy Boy (4/1), Mass Gathering (8/1), Kilonova (17/2), Takana (17/2), Ecclesiastical (9/1), Boughtinthedark (11/1), Gallow Hill (14/1), Hot Whispers (14/1), Pillar (16/1), Jedi Power (18/1), King's View (18/1), Lucky Queen (18/1), Our Louise (33/1), Maggie Thunder (33/1), Man Johnny (100/1), Attelboro (150/1)

Plenty are in with a shout. TEDDY BOY is proving a model of consistency and this C&D scorer can resume winning ways on the back of his very good Naas second. Navan-fourth Kilonova is weighted to have a say too and is next on the list, while Takana is another who enters calculations if shrugging off her Down Royal seventh.
