Forecasts

Asian Daze (9/4), Carnegie Hall (5/2), Sun Never Sets (5/1), King Of Gosford (15/2), What A Squeeze (17/2), State's Evidence (11/1), Dandy Lichious (18/1), Bid For Chester (18/1), Expecto (20/1), Promo Queen (25/1)

CARNEGIE HALL boasts a progressive profile and, having found one too good on each of his nursery outings to date, he's worth a chance to get off the mark now. Asian Daze and Sun Never Sets, who filled the first two places in a Gowran maiden last time, are both dangers.
