Forecasts

Via Blanca (16/5), Tees Douge (7/2), Musical Diva (4/1), Desert Master (7/1), Exponential (17/2), Horse Whisperer (9/1), Split The Profit (10/1), Drinkable (16/1), Smooth Silesie (22/1), Belvoir Kitten (66/1), Dash Power (100/1)

Having scored with something in hand at Newcastle, DESERT MASTER ran with credit again over 6f there last time, shaping as if a return to the minimum trip would suit. He's worth a chance to resume winning ways at the possible expense of Via Blanca, who starts out for a new yard. Tees Douge and Musical Diva are also likely to be on the premises.
