Forecasts

Desert Raider (3/1), Serendipitous Lady (4/1), Birkie Boy (9/2), Mist Of Lir (7/1), Search (9/1), Palazzo Persico (10/1), Tenyatta (10/1), Profectus (11/1), Danehill Star (14/1), Majolica (33/1), Head's Gone Pal (40/1)

A chance is taken on PROFECTUS, who isn't badly bred and hinted on his Newmarket debut back in June that he'll do better at some stage. Serendipitous Lady is another who may improve now tackling nurseries, while Mist of Lir could also have a say if returning to the pick of his form.
