Forecasts

Havanarama (2/1), Etretat (10/3), Orbital (4/1), Twirler (5/1), Rich Harry (10/1), Great Acclaim (12/1), Forever A Diamond (20/1)

The in-form HAVANARAMA pulled clear of the rest when beaten only by a well-treated sort at Newcastle and appeals as the most solid option. Twirler quickly resumed progress when runner-up at Lingfield and is another to consider, while market support for handicap debutante Orbital would look significant.
