Forecasts

Kosometsuke (1/1), Moby Quick (7/1), Political Power (7/1), Key Witness (7/1), Blue Anthem (10/1), Bintjan (11/1), Panama Black (11/1), Hunky Dory (12/1), Eliza Bennet (14/1), Ridgeway Redwing (16/1), Dandy G Boy (20/1), Gloryous (20/1), Cuban Girl (33/1)

KOSOMETSUKE proved a different proposition sent handicapping when justifying favouritism with something to spare at Kempton last week and a 5 lb rise may not be enough to prevent the follow up, especially with further progress in the pipeline. Key Witness is another unexposed type who should have more to offer, while Hunky Dory can show the benefit of his reappearance and have a say in proceedings, too.
