Forecasts

Zuhair (8/11), Victorious Night (5/2), Crocus (15/2), Affwonn (12/1), Undercover Agent (25/1), Falmouth Queen (125/1)

ZUHAIR made an impressive return when scoring at Nottingham in June and likely has plenty more to offer. He can follow up at the main expense of Affwonn, a ready winner on debut at Wolverhampton in December but who was soon sold out of Roger Varian's stable and gelded.
