Forecasts

Thunder Blue (13/8), Warm Spell (5/2), Sennockian (11/2), Never Sell (7/1), Soldier's Secret (8/1), Dark Fandango (14/1), Brooklyn Express (100/1)

Verdict

THUNDER BLUE probably would have made a winning debut at Haydock had he not met some traffic and sets a high standard. Sennockian went close at Ayr first time up and is entitled to build on that, while all 3 newcomers have appealing profiles, notably Soldier's Secret.
