Forecasts

Etretat (15/8), Cephalus (2/1), Arcadian Nights (3/1), Switchel (7/2), Sonnerie Power (10/1), Gordon Grey (11/1), Warren Hill (22/1), Tiptoe (50/1)

The reliable ETRETAT looked better than ever when striking at Lingfield recently and a 5 lb rise is unlikely to be enough to prevent him from going in again. Switchel is also consistent and she is feared most ahead of top-weight Arcadian Nights.
