Forecasts

Bournemouth (6/5), Ellis Island (9/2), My Boy Reecey (6/1), Double Check (6/1), Alado's Pride (10/1), Question Master (12/1), Matsuyamo (14/1), Almighwaar (16/1), Downing Seven (18/1), Gimme Gorgeous (28/1)

Verdict

ALMIGHWAAR has been hard to fault in recent starts and just about sets the standard. Matsuyamo appeals most of the remainder, while Ellis Island could go well too.

  1. Almighwaar16/1
  2. Matsuyamo14/1
  3. Ellis Island9/2
