Forecasts
Endorsement (11/8), Morshdi (5/1), Maho Bay (6/1), Italy (17/2), Oxagon (10/1), Mountain Cat (12/1), Generic (18/1), My Love Is King (18/1), Glacius (33/1), Oceans Four (80/1)
It's hard to knock the form of Endorsement, who'll probably try to draw the sting out of his opposition back over 1¼m, but he may just set things up for MAHO BAY, who looked a fine prospect prior to the Lingfield Derby Trial and can resume winning ways returning to a more suitable track. My Love Is King and Generic are both firmly on the up and command plenty of respect.
