Forecasts

Ancient Truth (4/6), Seagulls Eleven (5/1), Line Of Force (5/1), The Parthenon (5/1), Pentle Bay (8/1), Columnist (9/1), Wimbledon Hawkeye (20/1), Pap's Turf (33/1), Assertively (40/1)

Verdict

ANCIENT TRUTH steps into Group company for the first time but he's looked talented and genuine to this point, while his track experience is a big plus, so he's worth siding with over The Parthenon, who remains with plenty of potential. Coventry-third Columnist is also a big player for all he's not bound to relish the step up to 7f based on pedigree.
