Forecasts

Arrabiata (2/1), In Jest (6/1), Bell Jar (6/1), Alfonse Baby (7/1), Count Dubucks (9/1), Silver Dazzle (10/1), Hamsa Grove (12/1), Arianos Spinner (14/1), Sheik's Storm (16/1), More Than A Dime (16/1), Sacred Blues (22/1), Hareer (25/1), Guadeloupe (25/1), Hey Delilah (40/1)

ARRABIATA has sound claims on form and sets the bar high. In Jest could be the one to capitalise if the selection underperforms, while Alfonse Baby is one to bear in mind as well.
