Forecasts

True Promise (2/1), Twilight Fun (11/4), Secret Mistral (11/2), Diomed Spirit (6/1), Cinque Verde (6/1), Thunder Star (7/1), Dashing Harry (17/2)

TRUE PROMISE took a step back in the right direction at Southwell 2 weeks ago and is potentially on a handy mark if coming on again under a good-value claimer. Recent winners Secret Mistral and Dashing Harry head the dangers.
