Forecasts

Noble Mark (10/3), Definite (4/1), Super Lover (5/1), Francesi (13/2), Kenilworth King (7/1), Gangway (8/1), Visibility (14/1), Dungar Glory (16/1), Sucellus (18/1), Alpine Sierra (28/1), The New Marwan (50/1), Cowboy (125/1)

FRANCESI has been building up a solid profile on all-weather, recording a win and two seconds from 3 starts on the polytrack this year, so he is taken to resume winning ways now making his tapeta debut. He can see off the challenge of last time out C&D winner Kenilworth King, with Alpine Sierra completing the shortlist.
