Forecasts

Kinks (1/1), Sir Victor (3/1), Temple of Wonder (7/1), Tin Hat (9/1), Raskolnikov (14/1), Tizwotitiz (16/1), Steeve (20/1), Broadhaven Dream (28/1), Maid From The Mist (40/1), Rocky Park (66/1), Lamma Island (66/1), Wye Bother (100/1)

Just a couple of these juveniles have seen a racecourse so far, with Kinks going mightily close to making a winning debut at Kempton earlier this month. Mick Channon's colt was nailed on the line by the more experienced Lihou, whose handler David Evans saddles the £44,000 yearling Temple Of Wonder tonight. This Clodovil colt is most certainly a horse to consider closely alongside Tin Hat who might just be more of a longer term project. However, the Tom Dascombe trained SIR VICTOR is very well-related being a half-brother to both Corinthia Knight and Chiswick Bey, so he gets the vote in the hope that he's forward enough to do himself justice.
