Forecasts

Damascus Steel (11/4), Lunar Shadow (7/2), Aiming High (7/2), Warhol (7/2), Hill Station (15/2), Pablo Prince (12/1), Pour Me A Drink (16/1), Avarice (40/1), Dreams Fled Away (100/1)

The assessor has dropped AIMING HIGH 2 lb having not been seen to best effect on reappearance and dropped in class, she looks the way to go. Damascus Steel is an in-form rival so needs considering, while Oisin Murphy is an eye-catching jockey booking for Warhol on his return.
