Forecasts

Classic Maestro (4/11), Gentleman Bill (15/8), Risk D'Argent (7/2), Manowest (12/1), Bigz Belief (14/1), Grey Diamond (28/1)

GENTLEMAN BILL looked to have more to offer when going in over C&D last month so is fancied to make a winning start in handicaps at the chief expense of recent Wetherby victor Classic Maestro. Risk d'Argent is weighted to have a say too if ready to roll after his absence.
