Forecasts

Crimson Spirit (8/11), Mafnood (5/1), Brave Empire (7/1), Revolutionise (8/1), Way To Dubai (12/1), Future Cutlet (14/1)

C&D scorer CRIMSON SPIRIT arrives at the top of his game so is fancied to defy a 2 lb weights rise and complete his hat-trick. Brave Empire appeals as the one to chase him home with Mafnood and Revolutionise the pick of the remainder for minor honours.
