Forecasts

African Sunrise (5/2), Born To Perform (11/4), Mount Anderson (5/1), Special Blend (6/1), News Stream (15/2), Mohican (12/1), Tommy Grand (14/1), Hexatonic (16/1), The Bayou (18/1), Our Coys (28/1), Master Magic (33/1), Twice Golden (50/1), Rain Dance (80/1)

TOMMY GRAND is in good heart right now and should prove hard to catch. Mohican could be the one to capitalise if the selection underperforms, while News Stream also commands a closer look.
