Forecasts

Coulthard (2/1), Power Under Me (16/5), Hongkong Harmony (16/5), Yulong De Legend (10/3), Krypton Gold (18/1), Covert Mission (20/1), Burj Malinka (40/1), Aingeal Dorcha (40/1), Never Seen Before (50/1), Brightburn (50/1), Sir Angelo (50/1), Macs Dilemma (66/1), Rugaday (66/1), Alzarri (100/1), Dunum (150/1), Debras Boy (200/1)

Only a handful of these make any serious appeal, with COULTHARD taken to get his head in front. His third in the Round Tower in August sets the bar pretty high, and he will be tough to beat if anywhere near that level today. Yulong de Legend rates as the main threat having shaped with promise on debut, with newcomers Power Under Me and Hongkong Harmony worth noting too.
