Forecasts

Keen On (13/8), Echiquier (15/8), Blackfinch (9/4), Do Your Job (10/1), Islandray (50/1), Hang Tough (66/1)

This looks a really strong novice for the track and a win for any of the top three wouldn't surprise but with the prospect of more to come at this trip it may pay to side with the Sandown winner KEEN ON. Echiquier has shown good form since coming from France and and along with Blackfinch will be ready to strike if the selection isn't at his best.
