Forecasts

So Grateful (85/40), Badri (3/1), Phinow (8/1), Society Lion (11/1), Abu Malek (11/1), Sergeant Tibbs (12/1), Gannon Glory (14/1), Kentucky Rose (18/1), Dark Shot (20/1), Lilkian (20/1), Gowanlad (25/1), Bellagio Man (28/1), Dave Dexter (40/1), Dazzling Dan (66/1)

BADRI underlined his suitability for the track when scoring cosily over C&D last time and he's fancied to follow up despite a 7-lb rise. A number of others are in with a shout, notably Phinow and Dark Shot, the latter well treated and back to form recently.
