Forecasts

Saxon Land (6/4), Yarborough (9/5), Fighting Poet (9/4), Foinix (9/2), Silk And Steel (6/1), Temur Khan (10/1), Naturally (20/1), Bird About Town (50/1)

SAXON LAND showed the benefit of a visor when opening her account at Yarmouth recently and can go in again here with the headgear again fitted. C&D scorer Fighting Poet is next on the list with Yarborough also well in the mix at these weights if back to his best.
