Forecasts

The Hun (4/5), Curran (7/2), Lightning Leo (4/1), Sir Geoff Hurst (8/1), Tryfan (10/1), White Lines (150/1)

THE HUN showed enough on debut to suggest a race of this nature should be his for the taking, and he's the one to beat. Curran also shaped well on debut and he's preferred to stablemate and newcomer Sir Geoff Hurst for the forecast spot.
