Forecasts

Thunderbear (3/1), Midnight Toker (3/1), As It Was (10/3), Static Charge (9/2), Pub Talk (11/1), Autumnal Breeze (12/1), Distillate (12/1), Master Garvey (16/1), Ooh La Belle (25/1)

Verdict

MIDNIGHT TOKER proved to be a disappointment in a maiden here in May, yet he had previously shaped with promise and having been given a break/gelded, it would come as no surprise to see him bounce back now his attentions are switched to nurseries. Static Charge and Thunderbear are others fancied to figure.
