Forecasts

Galileo Blue (5/2), Free Your Spirit (11/4), Sunshine And Roses (10/3), Okiru (6/1), Meritocratic (7/1), Baggie Boy (22/1), Backfire (28/1), Telling Time (40/1), Hamish Leek (40/1), Sunday Sinatra (150/1)

Verdict

The most exposed runner SUNSHINE AND ROSES was unlucky not to finish closer over C&D last time and she sets the standard in a winnable novice. Galileo Blue showed much more at Kempton and could be the main danger if improving for the drop back to 7f, while Free Your Spirit may be capable of better, having been well-backed on debut last week. Of the rest, Okiru merits consideration if the market expects him to take another step forward.
