Forecasts

Wax And Wane (8/11), Soldier's Minute (6/4), Lynwood Gold (11/4), Spark Of War (9/2), Sincerely Resdev (40/1), Dicktation (50/1)

The recent Listed run of SOLDIER'S MINUTE sets the standard here and he should prove very tough to beat, despite shouldering a penalty for his earlier win. Wax And Wane is his most interesting opponent and looks open to fair amount of improvement. He is not ruled out, while Lynwood Gold should be on the premises and the performance of Spark Of War may well be worth noting.
