Forecasts

Governors Glory (5/2), Cairon (4/1), Romeo's Magic (5/1), The Brass Way (9/1), Drummer Dude (9/1), In For A Penny (10/1), Oyster King (11/1), Twice The Act (12/1), In The Game (16/1), Western Dance (16/1), Piccadilly Square (20/1), Zabarjad (22/1), Rabia The Rebel (25/1), Blue Moon City (25/1), Bold Matador (80/1)

IN THE GAME got back on track on his most recent run and is arguably the one the others have to beat. Twice The Act looks second best on balance, while Zabarjad commands a second look as well.
