Forecasts

Ancient Wisdom (6/5), Crown Estate (10/3), Under The Sun (4/1), Victory Shout (7/1), Dallas Star (15/2), Paladin (12/1), Unleash Hell (33/1), Storm Alice (150/1)

An interesting field of newcomers, with preference for CROWN ESTATE who makes plenty of appeal on paper being the first foal of French 1000 Guineas winner Castle Lady. He is taken to make a winning start for John & Thady Gosden, though amongst the list of potential dangers is expensive purchase Ancient Wisdom, along with Victory Shout.
