Forecasts

Yafta (11/10), Ghayadh (10/3), Enzo (9/2), Kodiac Express (8/1), Amandine (10/1), Authentic Art (10/1), Tabdeed (14/1), Chilean (16/1), Viceroy Mac (22/1)

An intriguing juvenile contest which features contenders with a good level of form and some nicely-bred and not inexpensive newcomers. Ghayadh sets the standard, but is probably vulnerable under his penalty, so the selection is YAFTA, who has shown plenty of promise in decent company and should cope with this step back in trip. Kodiac Express has solid placed form to her name, while any of the newcomers might be good enough to win on debut. The ones to catch the eye on paper are Authentic Art and Chilean.
