Forecasts

Chef's Kiss (2/1), Big Debates (4/1), Bal Kauto (4/1), The Lucky Lobster (7/1), Newport (9/1), Scott Lang (12/1), Look Dont Touch (16/1), Voice Of Reason (20/1), Silent Selector (22/1), Hay Baby (22/1), The Sugarhill Lady (28/1), Sea The Sunset (33/1), Jekiki (50/1), Seeyouatpuck (50/1), Lacken Forest (66/1), Kir Royal Blou (66/1), Nobody (125/1)

A number of these arrive with question marks against them so this could go the way of HAY BABY who appeals as a likely improver now going into handicaps with her stamina drawn out more. The handily-weighted Bal Kauto rates a big threat though with Newport and Chef's Kiss also in the picture.
