Forecasts

Luna Effect (3/1), Chesspiece (10/3), Humanity (9/2), Power Of Gold (11/2), Serengeti Sunset (13/2), Pledgeofallegiance (10/1), Artisand (16/1), Banderas (22/1), Fools Gambit (33/1), Hadrianus (50/1), London Legend (125/1), Ten Bob Note (150/1)

HUMANITY is related to numerous winners and with an excellent stable, so a chance is taken on him to make a winning debut in a race where the bar isn't set very high. Chesspiece is another notable newcomer and Power of Gold is arguably the most appealing of those with experience.
