Forecasts

Warhol (10/3), Warning Sign (7/2), Mukha Magic (4/1), Al Azhar (9/2), Spit Spot (7/1), My Chiquita (15/2), Smart Champion (12/1)

A trappy staying contest in which MY CHIQUITA is fancied to build on an encouraging first attempt at this trip when second at Bath and come out on top. Mukha Magic, Al Azhar and Warning Sign are all in good heart and remain on fair marks, so are also highly respected in a contest where little separates the principals on paper.
