Forecasts

Passional (15/8), Buy Me Back (16/5), King Robert (5/1), Indian Pursuit (7/1), Comeatchoo (14/1), Big Time Maybe (18/1), Mercers (18/1), Shani (22/1), Moveonup (28/1), Starchant (50/1)

PASSIONAL overcame unfavourable circumstances to complete the hat-trick after just 3 days off over C&D last time so must be of interest again. Buy Me Back rates the main threat ahead of King Robert.
