Forecasts

Hikmaa (4/6), Speak In Colours (5/2), Gold Filigree (3/1), Priscilla's Dream (5/1), Weeton (10/1), Follow The Feeling (25/1), Shadow Seeker (50/1), Roof Garden (66/1), Agent Of Fortune (80/1)

Verdict

A few of these have shown promise, most of obviously Hikmaa, who won well on debut at Newcastle last time and is obvious interest under a penalty (though still not top-weight, due to the conditions of this novice auction event). Preference, though, is for SPEAK IN COLOURS. Marco Botti's juvenile ran very well to finish third despite being far too keen in the early stages on his racecourse debut at Nottingham last time. That heavy ground may not have suited, either, and he can come on from that performance in a big way. Gold Filigree ran well in a handicap here last time and is another to consider.
