Forecasts

Flying Honours (4/11), Stormbuster (11/2), Dancing Magic (9/1), Crackovia (12/1), Signcastle City (18/1), Emily's Eclipse (50/1), There's The Door (100/1)

FLYING HONOURS created a fine impression when a wide-margin winner at Sandown last month, still showing some greenness but powering away in the final 1f. He can take the step up to listed level in his stride with the extra furlong to suit. Crackovia could be the one to give the selection most to think about, while Dancing Magic can also give another good account.
