Forecasts

Book of Secrets (1/1), Parliament Hill (15/8), Krypton Gold (7/1), Buxted Too (7/1), Trusty Scout (14/1), Cuban Cigar (20/1), Many Words (20/1), Sabre Jet (28/1), Crestwood (50/1), Outback Boy (80/1), Agent Empire (80/1)

BOOK OF SECRETS more than likely bumped into a useful juvenile starting out over hurdles at Bangor 18 days ago and this looks a suitable race for him to go one place better. Newcomers to this sphere Buxted Too and Parliament Hill could be the main threats
