Forecasts

Rocky Shores (5/4), Flat To The Max (5/2), Coral Blue (3/1), Colour Me In (3/1), Foreign Secretary (13/2), Good Shot Sir (50/1)

Verdict

FOREIGN SECRETARY is bred to be a star but hasn't lived up to the billing. This event might be within his compass having shown enough in his two starts so far over timber. Rocky Shores could prove the biggest danger, and Flat To The Max could go close if leaving behind a poor run last time. The filly Colour Me In also has claims on the pick of her form.
  1. Foreign Secretary
