Forecasts

Fen Tiger (5/4), Knowwhentorun (7/2), Knight's Gambit (11/2), King Charles (9/1), Graffiti (11/1), Drawing Clocks (18/1), My Brother Mike (22/1), Thermal (22/1), Burnage Boy (33/1), Raqisa (50/1)

FEN TIGER bumped into an improving 3-y-o at Windsor last Monday and is taken to go one better off the same mark. Knowwhentorun has been knocking on the door lately and may give him most to do ahead of Brighton-winner Knight's Gambit.
