Forecasts

Molten Sea (11/4), Morandi Second (10/3), Dark Jedi (5/1), Two Auld Pals (8/1), Normandy Vista (9/1), Lord Torranaga (11/1), Molinari (12/1), Bamboo Bay (12/1), Upepo (22/1), King Me (80/1)

MOLINARI is a long time without a win but has been given a chance by the handicapper and stepped up on his recent run back down in grade when second at Pontefract last month. He gets the vote over Molten Sea and Morandi Second.
