Forecasts

Oakley Boy (11/8), Havana Blast (5/2), Son Of Wind (7/1), Marrakesh Express (15/2), Yakfeek (11/1), Twilight Ballet (14/1), Invincible Crown (16/1), Beautiful Things (25/1)

A trappy nursery but HAVANA BLAST rates the pick at these weights so edges the vote ahead of commanding C&D victor Son of Wind, who seems sure to go well again despite an 11 lb rise. Yakfeek and Twilight Ballet appeal as the pick of the rest.
