Forecasts
Axe Axelrod (2/1), Suppressor (9/4), Beleaguerment (4/1), Zmhar (9/2), Cracking Speed (12/1), Shallow Hal (14/1), Budaiya Fort (22/1), Brother Bentley (100/1), Lottie Deno (150/1), Shesadabber (150/1)
Connections must be hopeful that AXE AXELROD is far better than he demonstrated in defeat at odds of 2/13f at Ayr last month, so in a fairly modest opener, a line is best drawn through that run and he's taken to build upon his more encouraging debut at Hamilton. A number of the others could prove capable of stepping up on their respective debut efforts (including Suppressor, Shallow Hal and Budaiya Fort), but in truth they need to do so, so perhaps Zmhar is the best advice for the forecast assuming that P J McDonald can get this free running colt to drop the anchor a fraction in the early stages.
