Forecasts

Mr King (4/1), Genuine Article (5/1), Eastern Wind (13/2), Desert Haven (7/1), Sea Chariot (17/2), Plume Noire (9/1), Wigmore Street (11/1), Flame Of Eire (11/1), Spanish Tenor (16/1), Sectarius (16/1), Exquisite Acclaim (18/1), Derry Lad (20/1), Something Nice (33/1)

MR KING arrives on the back of an excellent clear second at Cork 9 days ago and, if the race doesn't come too soon, he could go one better. Last-time-out winner Desert Haven is an obvious danger and Wigmore Street remains with potential.
