Forecasts

Persian Force (1/2), Little Big Bear (13/8), Mysterious Night (4/1), Brave Nation (6/1), Waiting All Night (20/1), Harry Time (25/1), Show Respect (33/1), King's Crown (100/1)

The Windsor Castle and Coventry formlines are represented here with LITTLE BIG BEAR, the winner of the former, taking on Persian Force, runner-up in the latter. There's precious little between them on Timeform ratings, but Aidan O'Brien's charge arguably possesses the greater scope for progress, particularly back at 6f. Of the rest, Brave Nation will hopefully show what he is truly capable of this time.
