Forecasts
Bright Melody (7/4), Arabian Moon (11/4), To Nathaniel (9/2), Royal Castle (6/1), Papa Power (12/1), Bobby The Great (16/1), Great Fengshui (33/1), Sea Bright (66/1)
Arabian Moon sets a reasonable standard and while he might have the benefit of previous experience and could be tough to overhaul if he's allowed an easy lead, BRIGHT MELODY won't need to be anything out of the ordinary to make this a winning racecourse debut. He represents powerful connections and looks a more slightly attractive betting option than his stablemate Royal Castle at this stage. Papa Power was an expensive purchase and also merits scrutiny in the betting, while Bobby The Great needs to improve great on his previous runs and looks more of a long term prospect in spite of the fact that he also had a hefty price tag as a yearling.
