Forecasts

Jomont (11/10), Black Minster (5/2), Nans Gift (11/4), Baby Ben (7/2), Mazamix (5/1), Gaolbreaker (6/1), First Glory (6/1), Fabuleux Du Clos (7/1), Areyouwithus (25/1), Milly On Air (25/1), Full Circle (33/1)

JOMONT is bred for the Flat, and following a promising debut amidst clear greenness at Doncaster in November, he looks the way to go. Peter Atkinson is no stranger to unleashing some above-average types so Black Minster could be a player first time up.
