Forecasts

Time To Turn (4/9), Peel Park (10/3), Mcmurray (10/1), Circle Of Magic (14/1), Lion Of Alba (16/1), A Bit Of Spirit (28/1), Chapter (50/1), Us Officer (100/1), Politely (100/1)

Verdict

The betting got it wrong as the odds-on TIME TO TURN found Maximized too good at Haydock, but his stablemate looks a smart sprinter in the making judged by his subsequent Woodcote success, and he can open his account himself now. Newcomers Circle of Magic and A Bit of Spirit might be the dangers.
