Forecasts

Fame N Fortune (1/2), Madame Peltier (11/2), Suns Up Guns Up (9/1), Al Jawhra (9/1), Crystal Carole (18/1), Kodikova (18/1), I'm Digby (20/1), Abel Tasman (28/1), Libbretta (66/1), Lep (80/1), Detachment (150/1)

FAME N FORTUNE is at the top of his game at the moment and is difficult to oppose as he bids for a hat-trick. Madame Peltier is a progressive filly who shouldn't be far away as she steps up in trip. Suns Up Guns Up starts out life in handicaps off a reasonable-looking mark and may progress.
