Forecasts

Sakheer (6/5), Ancestral Land (3/1), Thunder Ball (10/3), Dark Jade (7/2), Hunkpapa (12/1), Magical Sunset (14/1), Champagne Sarah (22/1), Alaskan (22/1), King's Gem (40/1), Imperiousity (50/1), Magnificent Millie (80/1)

Preference is for DARK JADE, who is bred in the purple and ought to have learnt a good deal from his encouraging Ffos Las debut last month. Ancestral Land also offered plenty on his racecourse bow and is feared most, whilst Magical Sunset may be the pick of the newcomers.
