Forecasts

Morcar (5/6), Mindset (9/4), Montevideo (9/4), Emperor Zen (10/3), Tribute (7/2), Mythical Guest (7/1)

MORCAR has set a solid platform and promises to be well suited by the longer trip, so he gets the nod over Montevideo, who ran with credit in a novice at Haydock 12 days ago and could get her own way in front. Tribute is also considered.
