Forecasts

Apollo Creed (10/11), Jaunty Flyer (15/8), Fresh New Dawn (5/1), Patgary (20/1), Diamond Reggie (20/1), Craigmor (33/1)

An interesting opener where there is little to choose between APOLLO CREED and Jaunty Flyer on what they have achieved so far, with the former just getting the vote given that he has shown that he can handle bottomless conditions. An improved effort is anticipated from Fresh New Dawn now stepped up in trip and in headgear, while Patgary is one to check out in the market as he too falls into that category.
