Forecasts

Kamakameleon (9/4), Believeinmenow (11/4), Corniche Girl (15/2), Wateen (8/1), Echoofmymind (12/1), Sporting Light (12/1), Call Me By My Name (14/1), U S S Charleston (16/1), Sayidah Poets (16/1), U Turn (28/1), Dinamo (33/1), Sands of Seve (33/1), Go Victor (80/1)

Having shaped with plenty of promise on debut at Thirsk a fortnight ago, BELIEVEINMENOW looks the way to go. The one who beat him in that maiden had the benefit of previous experience and he pulled nicely clear of the rest. Newcomer Echoofmymind is not short of appeal on paper and she merits respect, along with the likes of Wateen, Kamakameleon, Corniche Girl and Sporting Light (listed in order of preference), all of whom showed ability on their respective debuts.
