Forecasts

Verve (5/2), Bertog (3/1), Eternal Frame (5/1), Dream Desert (7/1), Glorious Jem (8/1), Eraad (10/1), Merweb (14/1), Danzena (16/1), Calin's Lad (40/1), Cuban Spirit (66/1), Singing The Blues (100/1), Show The Money (100/1), Moving Mountains (125/1)

A number of these will feel they have claims, including the consistent but winless Bertog and Dream Desert, who made a promising debut. Eternal Frame would be a strong candidate if back to his best, while Danzena looks one to note in the market ahead of her debut. Verve could also go well but a chance is taken on GLORIOUS JEM, who did well when the penny dropped on debut and is taken to go one better.
