Forecasts

Age Of Reason (3/1), Entrust (4/1), Zajal (9/2), Manitoba (6/1), Laurel Crown (8/1), Vallejo (10/1), Silver Bay (10/1), Wellington Square (12/1), Aston Bay (16/1), Seagoing (150/1)

Verdict

None of these have fancy entries but this looks a deep back-end novice which should be dominated by newcomers. Before market clues, the strikingly-bred ENTRUST (By Dubawi and Enable's first runner) is preferred to Godolphin pair Age of Reason and Zajal.
