Forecasts

Mojo Star (1/6), Auriferous (9/2), Alice Kazeem (80/1), Girandole (150/1)

Derby runner-up MOJO STAR faces a simple task dropped into maiden company and he can open his account with plenty to spare. Auriferous is a consistent sort and capable of fair form so appeals very much as the one to chase home Richard Hannon's smart colt.
