Forecasts

Screaming Eagle (7/4), Mighty Nebula (85/40), Asimov (7/1), Saji (15/2), Mamdoh (12/1), Normandy Legend (20/1), Incan Empire (28/1), Anglepoise (33/1), Achernar (40/1), Wyld Bill (66/1), Scottish Breeze (150/1)

This has the makings of an above-average maiden, with several well-bred sorts from top yards, but SAJI might be the newcomer to side with given that he's bred to have more pace than some. Screaming Eagle is an obvious player with the experience edge and Anglepoise is another one with an eye-catching pedigree.
