Forecasts

King's Advice (6/5), Celestial Force (4/1), Starcaster (7/1), Stonific (8/1), Benadalid (10/1), Desert Ruler (14/1), Armandihan (20/1), Multellie (40/1), Super Kid (50/1), Starplex (66/1)

A Class 3 handicap with a multitude of interesting dimensions and a number of horses who are capable of winning more races in the future, with the likes of Benadalid and Celestial Force both firmly in mind. However, for today the pair to concentrate upon are KING'S ADVICE and Stifonic. The latter clearly thrives early in the season, is a C&D winner and saw his recent Doncaster form (1m2f) handsomely franked by Grandee at Newcastle on Thursday. That said, a strong preference is for the four-timer seeking 5yo Frankel gelding who is 3-3 for the Johnston yard, and is expected to jump out and make all around this sharp track for a fourth win on the bounce.
