Forecasts

Brian (10/3), Cool Hoof Luke (7/2), Invincible Crown (4/1), Lovestruck Romeo (11/2), Enchanted Eye (13/2), Adelaide Bay (14/1), Flor Do Rio (14/1), Perfect Sight (14/1), Diomed Duke (22/1), Pay Attention (28/1), Freak Encounter (33/1)

BRIAN finished with running left after meeting trouble when fourth on debut at Windsor recently so, granted better luck in-running, Sylvester Kirk's colt is fancied to get off the mark at the expense of debutant Cool Hoof Luke, who represents the in-form Andrew Balding yard and ticks plenty of boxes on paper. This step up in trip should suit Lovestruck Romeo so he can edge out sole filly Flor Do Rio for third.
