Forecasts

Guns And Glory (6/4), Tactical Bound (4/1), Valdivia (5/1), Truth Explained (13/2), Inner Wisdom (8/1), Al Mukhtar (12/1), Kibo Misaki (18/1), Gun Crew (22/1), Alwareeth (28/1), Serena's Fame (80/1)

Verdict

GUNS AND GLORY rates the pick at these weights and looks the way to go on the back of a resurgent fourth here last time out. Truth Explained also has the form to play a part and is next on the list, with Valdivia and Tactical Bound also in the mix.

  1. Guns And Glory6/4
  2. Truth Explained13/2
