Forecasts

Wafei (4/7), Lyric (9/4), Master Builder (17/2), Lady Bancroft (16/1), Incan Empire (20/1), Loving Look (25/1), Hurtle Wallop (28/1), Ganton (66/1), Emperor Dream (80/1)

LYRIC found only odds-on Godolphin gelding Musical Act too strong on debut at Kempton back in November and this looks a good opportunity for John & Thady Gosden's charge to go one better now stepping up in trip. Second choice is Wafei, who failed to repeat his promising debut effort when last seen in the Autumn but remains with plenty of potential. Lady Bancroft and Master Builder certainly aren't out of things, either.
