Forecasts

Shadowed (1/1), Carracci (9/4), Sibyl Charm (9/4), Dabirann (7/1), Capital Guarantee (11/1), Farnborough (14/1), Blenheim Lad (25/1), Savigny (28/1), Timely Boost (33/1), Rathbranchurch (33/1), Lake Illawarra (33/1), Matt Connor (50/1), Hope And Innocence (66/1), Secret Sauce (80/1), Cozy Cartel (150/1)

Hard to look beyond SHADOWED, who improved when finding only the current Derby-favourite Auguste Rodin too strong at Naas in July and seems sure to progress himself. Sibyl Charm has joined Joseph O'Brien after a promising debut and it will be interesting to see how she shapes up in the betting with the selection. Newcomer Capital Guarantee catches the eye on paper.
