Forecasts

Awaal (15/8), Theoryofeverything (7/2), Bennetot (11/2), Classic (17/2), Hafeet Alain (10/1), Navagio (12/1), Tempus (12/1), Dear My Friend (14/1), Inspiritus (25/1), Son Of Man (28/1)

There's still an air of unfinished business about low-mileage 5-y-o AWAAL who shaped with plenty of promise on his reappearance (first home in his group) and as such, a 2 lb ease in the weights looks generous. Bennetot arrives in excellent heart so is second choice, ahead of Classic.
