Forecasts

The Bayou (4/1), Justfortheepenny (5/1), Caesura (5/1), Origami (13/2), Fireonthetrack (13/2), Hatton Hall (15/2), Velvet Season (8/1), Fat Cigar (17/2), Great Affair (12/1), Truly Wicked (16/1), Land Of Mystery (22/1), Rain Dance (80/1)

Verdict

JUSTFORTHEEPENNY frustrated those who made him favourite last time, but looks worth another chance. Fireonthetrack should be involved at the business end too, while Velvet Season deserves some consideration too.
