Forecasts

Outrage (4/1), Mondammej (4/1), Be Proud (9/2), Heer We Go Again (6/1), El Hombre (13/2), Klopp (9/1), Birkenhead (12/1), North Wind (14/1), Shoot To Kill (16/1)

OUTRAGE has been in good form of late and might find this race panning out ideally for him, so he gets the nod in a tricky sprint. El Hombre also arrives on the back of a good second and should be thereabouts once more, while Mondammej is an obvious player if he can build on his debut at the second attempt.
