Forecasts

Indemnify (1/7), Idee Fixee (7/1), Punto Banco (14/1), Total Joy (25/1), Just Another One (66/1), Orbit Of Iolite (125/1)

INDEMNIFY brings much the best form to the table for this maiden and is confidently expected to open his account having run well to occupy the runner-up slot on his past two outings. Jane Chapple-Hyam's newcomer Idee Fixee is bred to be no back number so could prove the one to give Roger Varian's colt most to do ahead of Punto Banco.
