Forecasts

Dark Encounter (8/11), I'm Puzzled (13/8), Metallo (7/1), Shadan Joy (8/1)

DARK ENCOUNTER relished the step up to 1m when going in at Newcastle a week ago and a 6 lb penalty doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from following up. Newcastle-fourth I'm Puzzled appeals as the one to chase home Karl Burke's colt ahead of handicap-debutant Metallo.
