Forecasts

Juyush (5/2), Faakhirah (4/1), Time And Money (5/1), Koybig (8/1), Adnap (9/1), Will Be King (10/1), Helen De Pourtales (11/1), Reverberation (12/1), Innamorare (14/1), Point Reyes (14/1), Never Back Down (16/1), Plum Perfect (20/1), Haayem (33/1), Pachmena (33/1), Tony The Gent (40/1), Sagittarius Rising (40/1), Mariechen (40/1)

FAAKHIRAH improved again when third in a 7f handicap here a month ago and with the form of that race well advertised since, she looks the one to be with tacking 1m for the first time. Juyush has taken really well to the AW of late and is a danger despite top weight, with Will Be King another to consider.
