Forecasts

Tonal (11/10), Frostmagic (5/1), Hale End (5/1), Qazaq (11/1), Packetofbiscuits (11/1), Selection (16/1), King Of York (20/1), Thequietman (22/1), Beauty By My Side (22/1), Renesmee (40/1), Cy Twombly (50/1)

TONAL hasn't looked back since returning to the AW in the autumn and is taken to record win number 5 from his last 6 starts. Frostmagic and Hale End look the chief threats.
