Forecasts

Rubellite (11/4), Busby (3/1), Dee's Dream (9/2), Bond Spirit (11/2), Visitant (17/2), Bamboo Bay (12/1), Lednikov (12/1), Angelica Catalani (25/1), Oscar Doodle (50/1), Typewritten (80/1), Wath Court (80/1), Born To Charm (125/1)

Verdict

BUSBY benefited from a first-time visor when scoring at Southwell recently and, if the headgear continues to have a positive effect, he's capable of following up. Bond Spirit looks the main threat and Lednikov also arrives on the back of a reasonable showing.
