Forecasts

Doctor Ken (6/4), Striking A Pose (4/1), Young Buck (9/2), New Age Dawning (11/2), Kap Auteuil (17/2), Key Commander (12/1), Fraternel (18/1), Golden Whisky (18/1)

There could be more to come from DOCTOR KEN over fences so he gets the nod to make a winning return from a break. New Age Dawning arrives on the back of 2 good runner-up efforts and may provide the chief threat ahead of Striking A Pose.
