Forecasts

Soldier's Heart (4/11), Kalahari Blue (8/1), Invincible Song (9/1), Maximus Alexios (10/1), Green Ace (14/1), Rare Change (20/1), Eva Jo (33/1), Sultan Of Oj (50/1), Top Star (80/1)

SOLDIER'S HEART chased home one who ran well in the Coventry on his Lingfield debut and should take a bit of stopping unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding one of the newcomers. Kalahari Blue has a useful pedigree and gets a tentative vote for the forecast spot before any betting clues are known.
