Forecasts

Oklahoma (13/8), Lancaster Tower (5/2), Launch Sequence (9/2), Speyside (8/1), Benjamin Hornigold (16/1), My Remas (22/1), Magwitch (25/1), Sole Ambition (33/1), Dover Street (40/1), The Thinking Man (50/1), Game Character (80/1), Pete's Angel (100/1), Rossbeigh (100/1), Master Celeritas (125/1), Galipi (150/1)

Verdict

LANCASTER TOWER was notably strong in the market when shaping with plenty of encouragement behind a subsequent listed winner on debut. He looks sure to progress from that and is fancied to land this valuable maiden en route to better things. Launch Sequence is feared most following his third in a strong Glorious Goodwood maiden, while Oklahoma commands plenty of respect for an Aidan O'Brien stable bidding to win this race for a third time in 4 years.
