Forecasts

Sea Legend (2/1), Pallas Lord (5/2), Tasever (9/2), Concert Boy (6/1), Sherlock (13/2), Montpellier Green (14/1), Oh So Cool (18/1), Maui Breeze (25/1), Big Gypsy King (80/1)

SEA LEGEND looks on a dangerous mark after confirming his return to form when sticking to his task at this C&D 15 days ago and is worth persevering with despite a lengthy winless run. Pallas Lord went close over this C&D on Saturday and is feared most ahead of Concert Boy.
