Forecasts

Angel's Trumpet (7/2), Legal Thriller (5/1), Day Dreamin' (6/1), Neyland (7/1), Knock Flyer (7/1), Silk Cravat (8/1), Mk Drama (10/1), Macaban City (11/1), Kudbegood (12/1), Sansevero Chapel (12/1), Feather Step (22/1), Fryerns (28/1), Swiss Bond (125/1)

DAY DREAMIN' has been knocking on the door this term and is taken to gain reward for her consistency. Silk Cravat's losing run goes back a bit but he's well capable of going close off his lower turf mark, while Legal Thriller underperformed last time but will be a threat if recapturing the level she showed when placed twice prior to that.
