Forecasts

Fourth Of July (10/3), Get With It (10/3), Boy's On Tour (5/1), Sword Of Fate (13/2), Budarri (7/1), Tico Times (10/1), Fresh New Dawn (16/1), Victory Echo (16/1), Furax (22/1), Passnotalegend (28/1), Diamond Road (500/1)

SWORD OF FATE won from 5 lb higher here last season and his last 2 starts have produced rejuvenated performances, so he's fancied to take this. Fourth of July's connections stick with this longer trip but he's the obvious danger on form, whilst Fresh New Dawn is interesting on return from a break.
