Forecasts

Nazron (30/100), Jungle Jim (7/2), Cast No Shadow (8/1), Gloves (12/1), Vanity Pays (12/1), Fidelius (18/1), Our Melody (18/1), Con Te Partiro (28/1), Tomshalfsister (125/1)

NAZRON took another step forward when going close over C&D on his nursery debut last month and could be hard to beat in this maiden. Jungle Jim has a race like this in him, while much better was expected from Our Melody on her debut and she could show more here.
