Forecasts

Jesse Evans (15/8), Greek Gladiator (9/4), Ilmig (7/2), Ciel D'afrique (5/1), Tiger Roll (9/1), Princess Vega (12/1), Bridge Native (14/1), Autumn Evening (33/1), Yaha Fizz (50/1), Elusive Gigolo (80/1)

JESSE EVANS looked useful when winning a bumper and a maiden hurdle in recent weeks and clearly possesses the speed to be a major factor switched to the level. Ciel D'aFrique and Greek Gladiator are equipped with first-time headgear and remain open to progress, while it will be fascincating to see how Tiger Roll fares on his season reappearance.
