Forecasts

Higher Kingdom (8/11), Well Prepared (11/4), Star Of Wells (7/2), Cobnut (10/1), Old Friend (12/1), Zambezi Magic (16/1), Blue Skyline (16/1), HMS President (20/1), On The Right Track (25/1), Purple Sandpiper (33/1), Quimerico (50/1), Saffron Lane (66/1)

Verdict

With Well Prepared a non-runner the standard set by those with experience is that high with Star Of Wells looking the pick of the bunch along with Zambezi Magic although that one doesn’t look particularly well drawn and did show some quirks on his debut. There are some nice pedigrees amongst the newcomers with HIGHER KINGDOM the pick of the bunch who holds a Group 1 entry (Irish 2000 Guineas) from a yard who have a terrific record with their 2yo debutants. Cobnut and Blue Skyline are two others making their debuts who deserve respect although the latter has a tricky draw to negotiate.
  1. Higher Kingdom
  2. Cobnut
  3. Star Of Wells
