Forecasts

Pamushana's Pride (2/1), Afraad (7/2), Have A Go Jo (7/2), Fsquadron (5/1), Ushuaia (9/1), Rocky Path (11/1), Major Return (14/1), In For A Penny (16/1), Our Man In Havana (16/1), Burnt Jasper (18/1)

Verdict

FSQUADRON is probably the safest recommendation but will need to be on song. Rocky Path seems the primary danger, while Afraad has place prospects as well.

  1. FSQUADRON (SAF)
  2. ROCKY PATH (SAF)
  3. AFRAAD (SAF)
