Forecasts

Kondratiev Wave (3/1), Masqool (4/1), Molly Valentine (9/2), Callianassa (5/1), Union Island (10/1), Edmund Ironside (10/1), Anamika (11/1), Rising Force (12/1), Slaney Swagger (12/1), Miss Dandylion (28/1), Doctor Awtaad (33/1), Go Wild (50/1)

KONDRATIEV WAVE has been in good form for a while and this is a touch weaker than the race in which he was third at Lingfield last time, so he gets the marginal vote ahead of Molly Valentine and Callianassa, who also arrive on the back of solid efforts. Anamika could improve for the switch to handicaps.
