Forecasts

Gunzburg (5/4), Sturlasson (7/2), Carnegie Hall (4/1), G'day Mate (8/1), Charles Atlas (11/1), Tarsus (20/1), Clonmacash (25/1), Seven Eleven (28/1), Kayson Cian (100/1)

CARNEGIE HALL and Gunzburg showed promise on debut and might improve past dual runner-up Sturlasson, with the narrow preference for Aidan O'Brien's charge. G'day Mate is a newcomer to monitor in the betting.
