Forecasts

Pulse Of Shanghai (9/2), Rock Etoile (5/1), Lisamaria (5/1), Barnhill Rose (6/1), James Henry (13/2), The Cola Brasil (7/1), Leclerc (10/1), Pallasmore Lass (10/1), Reverberation (10/1), Sadiqaa (11/1), Patrick Street (12/1), Cheeky Peek (14/1), Soyounique (14/1), Sin E Shekells (14/1), Woodrow (14/1), Born Invincible (16/1), Asisaid (20/1), Blue Peak (33/1), Magyar (125/1)

PULSE OF SHANGHAI is on an appealing mark and arrives in good order, so he's worth siding with in a race where the majority have something to prove. Leclerc looks a danger and Sadiqaa is one to note starting out for a new yard.
