Forecasts

Guendolen (16/5), Little Tiger (7/2), Sceptic (4/1), Douglas Dc (5/1), Muhib (8/1), Myna (9/1), Green Power (14/1), Magna Vega (28/1), Star Of Jupiter (50/1), Temur Khan (66/1)

Oisin Murphy is an eyecatching booking for GUENDOLEN, who showed enough in a handful of runs last term to suggest a race of this nature is within her compass. Douglas Dc and Sceptic can also make their presence felt.
