Forecasts

King's School (10/3), Prometeo (7/2), Lord Normandy (4/1), Claxton Bay (13/2), Calm Waters (9/1), My Dream World (10/1), Burlington House (11/1), Ronnie Raven (12/1), Smooth Transition (28/1), Super Silv (40/1), Sun Dancer Girl (66/1), Post Mistress (150/1), Delayed Charm (200/1), Rubio De Oro (250/1)

LORD NORMANDY offered encouragement first time out and this doesn't look a particularly strong event, so he takes marginal preference over Prometeo, who has achieved a bit more to this point. King's School is also considered.
