Forecasts

Pretence (6/4), Making Dreams (4/1), Commander Crouch (6/1), Guns And Flowers (8/1), Swift Salian (8/1), Havana Prince (11/1), Moyet (12/1), Jakima (14/1), Line Sheet (14/1), Darkest Mile (200/1)

Verdict

The top weights may dominate this nursery. PRETENCE knows her way around here and gets the nod with Harry Davies taking a handy 3 lb off. Commander Crouch appeals as a likely improver now stepping up in trip for his nursery debut and is second choice under Buick. Making Dreams is quite closely matched with the selection on C&D selling form earlier in the year and may prove best of the remainder.
