Forecasts

Zack Mayo (9/4), Desert Explorer (9/4), Makkadangdang (5/2), Sonnetist (9/2), Orin Swift (5/1), Enola (16/1), Think So (18/1), Cthulhu (22/1), High Wells (25/1), Act Swiftly (50/1)

Those with experience are probably the ones to concentrate on here with the Windsor form of ORIN SWIFT looking the most interesting on offer. Makkadangdang will be of interest if he can reproduce his Brighton run with Desert Explorer (if her stays) and Sonnetist (if he builds on his debut) also two that could take a hand here. Zack Mayo may have to improve again to be successful in maidens and looks one more for handicaps with newcomer Enola worth watching in the market.
