Forecasts

Chief Craftsman (7/2), Breguet Boy (9/2), Furzig (5/1), Sociologist (11/2), Smart Lass (13/2), Viceregent (17/2), Golden Hind (17/2), National Treasure (10/1), Daawy (16/1), Juriste (33/1)

Verdict

FURZIG isn't as good on turf as AW but he's been better than ever on artificial surfaces this winter and might be capable of outclassing this opposition under top weight. Golden Hind remains an interesting sort at this level if the view is taken that her reappearance run was needed. The selection's stablemate Viceregent could also have a part to play if primed for this first outing in 6 months.
