Forecasts

Gemcutter (11/4), Marengo (4/1), Galactic Warrior (6/1), Alex The Great (15/2), Ice Eater (8/1), Hurricane Hedley (8/1), Lord Grantham (9/1), Ramsay (12/1), Ramchandani Road (12/1), Donny G (12/1), Arran (25/1), Mars Rover (33/1), Talktothestars (66/1)

MARENGO is well clear on form and would be folly to overlook. Gemcutter looks to have most to offer of the rest, while Ice Eater could go well too.
