Forecasts

Flavour Maker (10/3), God Bless America (7/2), Sonmarg (7/2), Thorntonledale Max (6/1), Aljezur (10/1), Super Hit (10/1), Miggy Magic (11/1), Zinchenko (16/1), Perfect Spring (125/1)

SONMARG rates the pick of these weights and is fancied to gain a deserved first success of 2024 at the chief expense of Roger Varian's polytrack debutant Flavour Maker. C&D runner-up God Bless America appeals as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.
