Forecasts

Dusky Lord (8/15), Tawaazon (10/3), Imperial Force (6/1), Giveit Some Orange (16/1), Blackthirtyone (33/1), Iron Wolf (200/1)

DUSKY LORD shaped well when sent off 5/2 on debut last September. He's not been seen since but has been gelded and should improve to take a weak maiden. This is Andrea Atzeni's only ride on the card and a big run is clearly expected. Imperial Force has had plenty of chances to get his head in front but should be in the mix here. Giveit Some Orange and Tawaazon could also figure.
