Forecasts

Kinch (2/1), Legal Thriller (4/1), Jack Berry House (9/2), Adapt To Dan (5/1), Latchet (7/1), Just Brilliant (8/1), Eye Of The Dragon (8/1), New York Ballet (10/1), Forza Libranno (14/1), Philly's Hope (25/1), Complete Fiction (33/1), Duquesa Beach (40/1), Just Waterville (40/1), Cross Step (40/1), Yalla Go (125/1)

ADAPT TO DAN was a narrow fourth despite meeting trouble over C&D last time and this in-form 4yo is taken to confirm that encouragement provided he gets a clear run through. Kinch also arrives at the top oif his game and is feared most ahead of Legal Thriller.
