Forecasts

Khafoo Shememi (6/4), Marie's Diamond (3/1), Di Fede (4/1), Exhort (11/2), Lush Life (10/1), Oh This Is Us (12/1), I Could Do Better (12/1), Pure Shores (33/1)

After defeating the classy King Of Comedy on debut, I COULD DO BETTER has comfortably maintained his unbeaten record and could be well up this level on his first run for his new stable. Khafoo Shememi hit the ground running after his lengthy absence and is a big danger as a proven performer at this level. If the race turns into a test Exhort could be up to a place on the uphill finish. That wouldn't suit Oh This Is Us although he has obvious quality at this level. Di Fede is another to consider in her good form but again the concern is the tough finish on a left-handed track.
