Forecasts

The Dark Baron (11/4), Honour Whim (3/1), Steely Dan (4/1), Silk And Steel (11/2), Irezumi (6/1), Dotties Star (9/1), A Bit Iffy (18/1), Mostly Mozart (18/1), Masonbrook Meadow (20/1), Broadhaven Bay (28/1)

This looks a reasonable race for the grade but it's hard to ignore the claims of THE DARK BARON, who did it nicely at Bath 3 weeks ago and from his low base, further success beckons. Honour Whim eases slightly in class, while Steely Dan is a potential improver now handicapping back up in distance.
