Forecasts

Thapa VC (7/2), Arika (4/1), Wilde And Dandy (9/2), Admiral Nelson (9/2), Supreme King (11/2), Motagally (8/1), Shaw Park (8/1), Pavlodar (10/1), San Isidro (18/1), No Saint (28/1), The Toff (33/1), Bobby Shaft (50/1)

Irish-import ADMIRAL NELSON made a winning start for new connections at Newcastle recently and, still on a handy mark following a 4 lb rise, he is taken to strike again. Arika is open to improvement now pitched into a handicap and is feared most, while Thapa Vc is feasibly treated and enters calculations, too, on the back of a creditable effort at Lingfield earlier this month.
