Forecasts

True Accolade (7/4), Balgowan (3/1), Salvator Mundi (9/2), Sooghan (8/1), Loving And Giving (8/1), Newton Dancer (14/1), Locksmith (18/1), Gulick (100/1), D Day Hero (200/1), Gin And Tea (300/1), Planxty (300/1)

SALVATOR MUNDI shaped well when keeping on late into fourth under hand riding at Kempton and this son of Galileo is fancied to take a sizeable step forward now and fend off True Accolade, who also went with some promise when finishing one place ahead of him there and rates a big threat. Newcomer Sooghan catches the eye on paper and is another worth considering, especially if the market speaks in his favour.
