Forecasts

Siskany (4/9), New London (7/2), Gallerist (9/2), Rakeez (40/1), Sea Stone (66/1), Scottish Anthem (80/1), New Comedy (100/1)

Verdict

SISKANY is the choice of William Buick and he should take all the beating if running up to the sort of form that saw him win on his return. Stablemate New London should be thereabouts too, while French raider Gallerist commands plenty of respect as well.

  1. Siskany4/9
  2. New London7/2
  3. Gallerist9/2
