Forecasts

To Dibba (9/4), Erik The Red (11/4), Gulf Of Poets (4/1), Aasheq (9/2), Commander Cole (13/2), Another Eclipse (7/1), Restorer (8/1), Carbon Dating (12/1), Von Blucher (16/1), Vale Do Sol (33/1)

Verdict

The dark one in here is Vale Do Sol who makes his British debut off what could be a lenient mark. A market check is very much needed for him here. Another Eclipse should be cherry ripe now after a couple of runs and gets in here off bottom weight. GULF OF POETS returns from a short break but was highly progressive prior to that and can get back to winning ways here.
  1. Gulf Of Poets
  2. Another Eclipse
  3. Vale Do Sol
