Forecasts
Streak Lightning (7/4), Duesenberg (9/4), Artistic Rifles (11/4), Greek Kodiac (9/2), Atheeb (11/2), National League (10/1)
The vote goes to STREAK LIGHTNING, who got back on track when making it 2-3 on the all-weather over C&D in January and a 4 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from striking again. Duesenberg found only a progressive type too strong over 1m here last time and he should be winning soon, but this drop back in trip is of dubious benefit. He is second choice nonetheless, ahead of Artistic Rifles.
