Forecasts

Pitney (10/11), Mercury Day (2/1), Dimsons (6/1), Frost At Dawn (10/1), Warming (25/1), Wadi Bu Thaila (50/1), Lovely Masar (80/1), Sicilian Sosizza (150/1), Tattle O'day (300/1)

PITNEY made an eye-catching debut when second at Lingfield 5 weeks ago, finishing strongly from a poor position, and is narrowly preferred to Mercury Day, who is worth another chance to confirm debut promise back on a better surface. Frost At Dawn is also considered.
