Forecasts

Sir Pass I Am (4/1), Western Way (11/2), Montanna (6/1), Buonarroti (6/1), Sheriff Garrett (13/2), Angel Gabrial (8/1), Handiwork (10/1), Gabrial's Star (10/1), Galileo's Spear (10/1), The Resdev Way (10/1), Azam (12/1), Italian Riviera (12/1), Medina Sidonia (14/1)

Verdict

Western Way has had a good winter and the quicker they go the better for him. Azam is another to have turned the corner and could be a danger to all especially if he gets a soft lead. The suggestion is GALILEO’S SPEAR who was thought good enough to run in a Grade 2 in North America and has dropped to a very tempting mark for his first UK turf start.
  1. Galileo's Spear
  2. Azam
  3. Western Way
