Forecasts

Never Dark (2/1), Karibana (2/1), Meraas (11/4), Captivated (5/1), Aweemaweh (12/1), Shecandoo (16/1), Joyfilly (20/1), Valentine Blues (20/1), Sepia Belle (40/1), Eye Smiling (50/1), Gherkin (50/1), Rosina Rose (100/1)

Joyfilly and Meraas are interesting newcomers in a trappy looking contest where form pick Karibana probably needs further and Captivated has moved yards. Aweemaweh was highly regarded last year and could prove a lot better this term. He is bred for speed as is NEVER DARK who is a half-brother to Dark Shot. The Kingsclere runner has proved expensive to follow thus far, but this looks a good opportunity to recover those losses.
