Forecasts

Red Bond (5/2), Daheer (4/1), Snow Ocean (9/2), Harlow (13/2), Goddess Of Fire (8/1), Sandyman (14/1), Plymouth Rock (14/1), Finoah (18/1), Siavash (18/1)

RED BOND ran creditably over a slightly shorter trip here earlier in the month and can go one better today down in class. Daheer could bounce back returning to this trip and has to be taken seriously. Siavash is another to consider.
