Tongue strap on.

Forecasts

My Silver Lining (2/1), Juniper (16/5), Striking A Pose (7/2), Organdi (9/1), Stormy Flight (10/1), Wake Up Early (11/1), Harlem Soul (11/1), Mr Mafia (25/1)

WAKE UP EARLY has done very well since joining this yard and his latest third at Fakenham in May was arguably his best run yet. He remains of interest and can make a winning return. There wasn't much between My Silver Lining and Juniper when first and second at Cheltenham in May and they are feared most.
