Forecasts

Pure Of Heart (11/4), Queen Of Soldiers (3/1), Min Huna (9/2), Queens Fort (6/1), Nakheel (7/1), Hillbridge (15/2)

This could go to one of the newcomers from the big Newmarket yards, with QUEEN OF SOLDIERS chanced over Queens Fort before market clues. Pure of Heart shaped well on debut at Sandown in September and will improve, so must be respected.
