Forecasts

Golden Speech (8/13), First Sight (2/1), I'm Too Tired (15/2), Redcliff Glen (18/1), Threebars (18/1), My Mate Mike (100/1), Marion Of Elmstone (125/1), Dark Gold (150/1), Lens Legacy (200/1)

GOLDEN SPEECH didn't look totally straightforward during the summer but a subsequent gelding operation coupled with the application of cheekpieces may help him and he possesses the ability to win a maiden such as this. Stablemate First Sight and I'm Too Tired remain capable of better and can offer most resistance.
