Forecasts

Dashing Panther (11/8), William Walton (9/4), True Courage (6/1), Diamond Bay (15/2), Cardano (10/1), Dreams Adozen (16/1), Tradesman (16/1), Jacques Cartier (28/1), Fleurman (33/1), Hedonista (33/1)

WILLIAM WALTON caught the eye on his qualifying run at Southwell and this brother to Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Waldgeist can find the required improvement on handicap bow. Dashing Panther scored with a bit in hand here last month and remains unexposed on AW, so is next best ahead of Dreams Adozen.
