Forecasts

Kazakdaria (10/3), Extensio (6/1), Derry Lad (7/1), Dartington (8/1), Wild Shot (9/1), Massaman (9/1), Vischio (10/1), Five Zeros (12/1), Hidden Land (14/1), Hearts Are Trumps (16/1), Pachmena (18/1), Final Endeavour (22/1), Cask Mate (33/1), Sean Says (33/1), Figurehead (50/1), Delta Dawn (100/1), The Virginian (125/1)

DARTINGTON was pretty useful on the level when trained in Britain and having won 3 times over hurdles for Gordon Elliott, he ought to be able to do more damage on the Flat. Kazakdaria is a likely improver given her profile, with Wild Shot demanding respect in his current mood.
