Forecasts

State Of Wyoming (13/8), Shaftesbury Avenue (2/1), Tashakour (10/3), Zelani (8/1), Monmouth (14/1), Huff'n'puff (16/1), Battle Of Maldon (28/1), Matada (50/1), Priorstown (80/1), Jumpingthegun (100/1), The Rock Factor (100/1), Fay Og (125/1), Majestic King (200/1), Sarangpur (250/1), Only One Scobie (300/1)

Aidan O'Brien took this with a smart sort last year and SHAFTESBURY AVENUE gets the nod to build on his encouraging debut at the Curragh a couple of weeks ago. Tashakour showed enough in his 2 outings at the Curragh last summer to suggest he has a decent future and he's second choice ahead of well-bred Paddy Twomey newcomer State of Wyoming and the selection's stablemate Monmouth.
