Forecasts

Darbucks (9/2), John L Sullivan (5/1), Clasina (6/1), Roman Harry (13/2), Inanna (7/1), Rebecca's Girl (8/1), Amayretto (11/1), Giselles Izzy (12/1), Purple Martini (12/1), Black Friday (16/1), Golden Valour (18/1), Vixey (50/1)

A few with chances but ROMAN HARRY rates just the pick of these weights so is taken to make a winning start for Iain Jardine. Redcar scorer Darbucks heads the list of dangers, although John L Sullivan, Giselles Izzy and Black Friday need factoring in too.
