Forecasts

Accordingtogino (13/8), Milanstorm (11/4), Early Learner (4/1), Lomachenko (9/1), Black Lightning (12/1), Captains Run (16/1), Archirondel (33/1), Hahadi (50/1), Phoenix Song (150/1)

Kim Bailey clearly thinks a fair bit of EARLY LEARNER, whom he started under rules in a Listed bumper, and who ran well here on her hurdles debut. She is taken to build on that now upped in trip and go one better. Accordingtogino is a very interesting newcomer for a top team in-form. He could go well, while Milanstorm and Lomachenko are the others of greatest interest.
