Forecasts

Manila Scouse (16/5), Aberama Gold (7/2), Dakota Gold (9/2), Mr Wagyu (9/2), Marine Wave (8/1), Twelfth Knight (9/1), Bay Breeze (10/1)

Having shaped well in a competitive event at York, DAKOTA GOLD scored with something to spare at Redcar last time and remains with plenty of handicapping scope, so he takes preference over Mr Wagyu, who posted an excellent second at Epsom recently. Manila Scouse is also considered.
