Forecasts

Fox Master (6/5), Engelbert (5/2), Colnago (9/2), Nwaira (11/2), Amy Santiago (13/2), Pub Club (16/1), My Song For You (25/1), Data Leak (33/1), Mr Jetman (50/1), Madam Arkati (300/1)

Newcomer FOX MASTER makes plenty of appeal on paper, so he could be up to making a winning start for his top yard. Amy Santiago shaped well first time up at Thirsk in July and is expected to improve despite being off the track since, while Pub Club and Nwaira are other likely types on paper who require close market scrutiny.
