Forecasts
Royal Favour (9/4), Galactic Star (9/4), Spy Kingdom (13/2), Gun Carriage (15/2), Crown Estate (9/1), Home Brew (14/1), Zandvoort (18/1), Street Mood (22/1), Noogool (22/1), Magic Petition (22/1), Jenilat Bright (40/1)
A case can be made for several in this competitive handicap but SPY KINGDOM gets the nod. Crown Estate may prove next best, ahead of Noogool and Home Brew,
- Spy Kingdom13/2

- Noogool22/1
