Forecasts

Qaabil (7/2), Miracles In May (11/2), Facethepuckout (13/2), Peppermint Bay (7/1), Lucky Queen (8/1), Pallasmore Lass (17/2), Corballis Flyer (9/1), David Garrick (10/1), Tall Story (11/1), Manhattan Dandy (12/1), Rock Dandy (12/1), Tyrion's Dream (12/1), Fond Farewell (14/1), Well Suited (16/1), Belardeen (16/1), Improving (22/1), Broken Silence (25/1), Classy Kate (33/1), Harrison Green (33/1), Hardly Useless (33/1), Lisabetta (100/1)

QAABIL was seen to good effect when landing a gamble after 13 months off at Gowran 27 days ago, but he remains well treated on old form following a 6 lb rise in the weights, so the follow up looks possible. Fellow last-time-out winner Miracles In May and David Garrick are a couple of potential threats in an open contest.
