Forecasts

Good Banter (4/11), Target Man (11/2), Peter The Wolf (7/1), Oceans Charm (20/1), Rogue Dancer (25/1), Havana's Dream (66/1), King's Hand (80/1), Fiery Angel (100/1), Backer Bilk (100/1)

A potential match between GOOD BANTER and Target Man, with the former getting the vote having narrowly found one too strong on debut at Salisbury last month. George Boughey's colt improved from his debut 5 months earlier when runner-up over C&D a fortnight ago and he may have to settle for a hat-trick of silver medals, with Peter The Wolf and debutante Oceans Charm taken to fight out third.
