Forecasts

Prepense (1/4), Lunacy (9/2), Twoforthegutter (10/1), Stenton Glider (18/1), Winnaretta (18/1), King's Code (25/1), Deguello (50/1), Pink Walls (80/1)

PREPENSE made a highly promising start when beaten only by the potentially smart Commissioning (current favourite for the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket on Friday) in a novice at the July Course 8 weeks ago and is hard to oppose in this company. Lunacy offered something to work on at Epsom and can follow the selection home.
