Form: 3480-37

Forecasts

Monsieur Fantaisie (2/1), Red Walls (5/2), Coast (7/2), Savannah Smiles (15/2), Autumn Flight (9/1), Musaytir (18/1), My Kind Of Girl (33/1), College Wizard (50/1), Perfect Symphony (50/1)

Despite his propensity to miss the kick and modest strike rate, MONSIEUR FANTAISIE is pretty appealing on the back of his recent near miss off this mark at Wolverhampton. If the 6-y-o is able to get away on terms here from the plum draw he could have the measure of Coast, who landed a minor event here at the beginning of the month. Red Walls is best of the rest.
