Forecasts

Namiid (6/5), Amiata (4/1), Unionville (9/2), Raphello (5/1), Zarvali (12/1), Strike Zone (14/1), Mr Tony (22/1), Another Nice'day (40/1), Countertop (80/1), Sleeper Hunter (100/1), Monvoe (200/1), Changing Direction (250/1)

If NAMIID can reproduce the level he showed when third in a listed race at the Curragh 12 days ago he'll probably get off the mark. Raphello is the obvious form threat, while it also wouldn't be a big shock were his stablemate Mr Tony, the mount of Dylan Browne McMonagle from the yard's trio, to take a big step forward with his debut behind him.
