Forecasts

Okeanos (15/8), Anglo Saxson (3/1), Dion Baker (9/2), Cariad (9/2), The Spotlight Kid (12/1), Brazen Arrow (14/1), Azeezan (16/1), Goose Rock (25/1)

CARIAD looks the way to go here given the form of her recent Nottingham second is proving strong and she can race off the same mark. Okeanos could emerge as the chief threat on the back of his solid Doncaster second, with Dion Baker and Azeezan in the mix for minor honours.
