Forecasts

Dexcite (11/4), Charmant (9/2), Chti Balko (9/2), Imada (6/1), Blue Hussar (8/1), Cornborough (10/1), Monfass (16/1), Jassas (16/1), Katgary (18/1), Mirsaale (33/1)

Potentially competitive on paper. Dexcite is very interesting under a good claimer and a feather racing weight, though he has it to prove on soft ground and that is not the case with CHTI BALKO, who loves it deep and is taken to defy another 7lb rise and make further progress. Imada is interesting after another absence and if straight enough he would be a concern from this mark, while Mirsaale and Blue Hussar are others considered.
