Forecasts

Alzahir (13/8), Pherenikos (5/2), Resolute Man (3/1), Mukeedd (8/1), Ssenwan (14/1), Village Legend (16/1), Goodfella (28/1), Guiteau (28/1), Bode (50/1)

PHERENIKOS has a pedigree that leaps off the page as a half-brother to this season's 2000 Guineas winner Coroebus out of a half-sister to high-class winner up to 1¼m Thunder Snow so he may well be up to the job on debut. Resolute Man also makes plenty of appeal on paper, with Alzahir the pick of those with experience.
