Forecasts

The Warrior (7/2), Afro Blue (4/1), Lothario (4/1), Rivas Rob Roy (9/2), Corrida De Toros (9/2), Valletta Sunset (14/1), Mungo's Quest (14/1), Mojambo (80/1), Haraz (80/1)

Recent course winner THE WARRIOR still looks on a workable mark and can score again. Lothario and Rivas Rob Roy are feared most.
