Forecasts

View Taken (13/8), Betterdaysrcoming (10/3), Boy Scout (5/1), Magnetar (5/1), Mister Mister (15/2), Spirit Genie (9/1), Tiymara (11/1), Union Flag (33/1), Devore (40/1), Long Count (50/1), Majestic Hills (150/1), Royal Reba (150/1)

Plenty of depth to this maiden with VIEW TAKEN, who is bred to be smart, fancied to step up on his debut with the drop to 7f probably a good move at this stage of his career. Mister Mister was an eye-catcher at Killarney, with Boy Scout another to consider.
