Forecasts

Verdict

SEA GARDENS shaped well amidst inexperience on debut and, with improvement likely 6 months on, he's preferred to Dutch Gold, who was an encouraging second on his final juvenile outing. Walsingham is another one to consider and The Black Tiger is expected to leave a disappointing behind.

  1. SEA GARDENS (FR)
