Forecasts

San Juanito (7/4), Light Crusader (4/1), Supreme Sovereign (9/2), Special Ghaiyyath (6/1), Outlandish (8/1), Plymouth Brethren (14/1), Grizzieblanca (22/1), Beachborough Girl (100/1), Good Shot (150/1)

SUPREME SOVEREIGN lowered the colours of an established sort when making a winning debut at Southwell in November and sure to relish this trip, he can go in again under a penalty. San Juanito's performance in a handicap last time reads well in the context of this race so he's a danger, while Outlandish requires a market check on debut.
