Forecasts

Palmarian (1/1), Meblesh (4/1), Honved (5/1), Mum's Angel (6/1), Forty Years On (14/1), Recency Bias (20/1), Criminal Shore (33/1), Dubai Gold (50/1), Fallons First (80/1), Erick (100/1), She's A Goldigger (200/1), Karakula (200/1), Uniting (250/1)

PALMARIAN showed plenty of promise in an October Newmarket maiden that usually throws up a smart one and with improvement surely on the cards he could get off the mark here. Likewise Honved made a very bright start more recently at Wolverhampton and seems sure to progress. Meblesh, for a yard that has won 3 runnings of this in recent years, and Mum's Angel, are appealing newcomers.
