Forecasts

Poderoso (3/1), Tyson (3/1), Berkshire Shadow (9/2), Object (11/2), Gisburn (6/1), So Smart (12/1), Amazonian Dream (25/1), Sir Randolph (40/1), Reckon I'm Hot (66/1)

A field of newcomers and the market will no doubt reveal plenty but PODEROSO ticks a lot of boxes on paper and with trainer Charles Hills in very good nick this son of Kodiac is taken to get off to a winning start. Martyn Meade's Object is another likely sort on pedigree so is feared most, although Berkshire Shadow and the Richard Hannon-trained duo Gisburn and Tyson could easily make a mark too.
