Forecasts

Luscifer (5/2), General Joe (4/1), Lara Silvia (6/1), Saline Bay (6/1), Lafontaine (8/1), Pearl Of India (10/1), River Sprite (11/1), Purple Sandpiper (22/1), Heart Of A Hunter (25/1), Rosie Mccann (40/1), Waltzing Home (50/1), Krishmaya (80/1), Bo Taifan (100/1), Num Num (200/1)

Plenty have something to prove but that can't be said for LUSCIFER who arrives on the back of some solid efforts on tapeta and, having proven his effectiveness on fibresand previously, he's fancied to be firmly in the mix. Handicap debutante Saline Bay and General Joe may be the pair to give the selection most to think about.
