Forecasts

Magic J (7/4), Konchek (3/1), Line Of Reason (7/1), Mokaatil (15/2), Green Power (8/1), Blue De Vega (10/1), Puds (11/1), Royal Birth (16/1), Breathless Times (25/1), Outrage (40/1)

Verdict

A few of these are expensive to follow, notably Blue de Vega, and while that one has every chance of hitting the frame, his win record on turf doesn't inspire confidence. Magic J keeps running well after being well backed, but is another costing backers dear, and the vote instead goes to PUDS, who was better than the result after a break at Goodwood last time, and will appreciate the drop in both class and trip here.
