Forecasts

The Cull Bank (1/2), Queen's Magic (2/1), Urca De Lima (10/1), Kentford Mallard (33/1), Shaw's Dilemma (100/1)

Given that Queen's Magic keeps finding something too good and there are clearly also concerns about her ability on soft ground, the selection has to be THE CULL BANK, who won well on debut, is unexposed and taken to defy her penalty. Kentford Mallard can chase them home.
