Forecasts

Different Breed (9/4), Dyrholaey (5/2), Kento (9/2), Scarboroughwarning (11/2), Rothay Park (15/2), Bestie (14/1), Tenet (33/1), Hombre (100/1)

SCARBOROUGHWARNING shaped well when runner-up at Wolverhampton last time and with more improvement very much on the cards from Sir Mark Prescott's filly now she steps up in trip she looks the way to go. Different Breed has the form to have a big say too and is next on the list, although a market move for Archie Watson's newcomer Dyrholaey could put a different slant on things.
