Forecasts

Written Broadcast (10/3), Outreach (4/1), Angel Amadea (9/2), Kenstone (11/2), Bear To Dream (9/1), Last Date (10/1), Miss Calculation (11/1), Midnight Flame (18/1), Kananga (25/1), Lady Amanda (40/1), Round The Island (40/1), Rockonmecca (50/1)

A return to Wolverhampton sparked a return to form from WRITTEN BROADCAST last time and he can build on that second-placed finish and go one better now. Kenstone has knocked on the door here in recent weeks and is second choice ahead of Outreach, another with a course near miss to his name this autumn.
