Forecasts

Lunch Money (2/1), Final Move (9/2), Swift Action (11/2), Wylie Jack (6/1), Escarpment (13/2), Rock On Tommy (7/1), Royal Lytham (17/2), Wordsworth (16/1), King Mo (25/1)

Verdict

ROYAL LYTHAM looks to have just about the best credentials but has little room for error. Lunch Money can also take a hand, while Swift Action also commands a closer look.
