Forecasts

Herrin (9/4), Mendocino (5/2), Kathleen (9/2), Intrepid Traveller (7/1), Makara (8/1), Palace Queen (17/2), Dive Captain (10/1), Brandina (16/1), Captain Anne Bonny (16/1), Miss Honey (25/1), Trippin The Stars (28/1), Gimme Hope Johanna (40/1), Cruise Along (40/1)

BRANDINA seemed to take to cheekpieces last time, and should give it another good go. Herrin could give the selection most to think about, while Miss Honey also merits respect.
