Forecasts

American Bay (15/8), Royal Power (9/4), Kings Valley (7/1), Flag Carrier (8/1), Trafalgar Square (8/1), Tchaikovsky (12/1), Sunny Street (16/1), Mufid (28/1), Advert Rules (80/1), Wonderful Lives (125/1), True Blue Gent (250/1)

AMERICAN BAY's third-placed finish at Ascot last month has turned out to be strong form, and switched to the AW, he looks up to winning a novice. Royal Power is the first foal of a Nell Gwyn Stakes winner so he has a lot going for him on paper, with Kings Valley also expected to be on the premises
