Forecasts

Taipan (10/11), Powerful Aggie (4/1), White Caviar (4/1), Mellow Magic (13/2), Wordsworth (12/1), Agenda (14/1), Sea Oscar (18/1), La Hacienda (22/1)

Verdict

TAIPAN should have had his confidence boosted by wins at a lower level in recent weeks and can complete a hat-trick now stepping back up in class. Wordsworth had a good record when fresh for Aidan O'Brien and will be a danger if reproducing anything like his best form on his return for a new stable. White Caviar just wasn't herself last time and her overall record suggests she can bounce back here and also play a prominent role.
