Forecasts

Penzance (9/4), Talis Evolvere (9/2), Dragon Icon (5/1), Felix (7/1), Base Note (8/1), Wadacre Gomez (17/2), Diderot (12/1), Old Peculier (14/1), Civil Law (14/1), Zealot (22/1), Dayzee (25/1), Youthful King (33/1), Qaasid (66/1)

This step up in trip could be just the ticket for DRAGON ICON, who did mighty well to finish as close as he did over a mile at Kempton last month. With just five starts under his belt, there should be better to come from this 4-y-o. Penzance and Wadacre Gomez are likely to emerge as dangers, while cases can also be made for Felix and Talis Evolvere.
