Forecasts

Starfighter (9/2), Giuseppe Cassioli (9/2), Punting (6/1), Toro Dorado (13/2), Poetic Force (13/2), Kendergarten Kop (8/1), My Target (11/1), Mabre (12/1), Visibility (14/1), Fierospeed (16/1), Transition (40/1)

GIUSEPPE CASSIOLI looked back in top form at Newcastle 3 weeks ago and it may pay to trust that he will see out this new trip. Starfighter and Toro Dorado are pretty consistent at this level and head the dangers.
