Forecasts

Kraka (6/4), Puchita (9/4), Gorgeous General (5/1), Archimedes (15/2), Bernie's Boy (8/1), First Excel (14/1), Nibras Shadow (16/1), Amber Lily (28/1), Jazz Legend (50/1)

It could be worth chancing FIRST EXCEL, who has been given a chance by the handicapper and 3 of his 4 career wins have come over this C&D. Kraka made all in good style here last week and rates the main threat under a penalty, while 5-time course winner Gorgeous General is becoming well treated again.
