Forecasts

Winnetka (10/3), Swinging Eddie (5/1), Sea Storm (11/2), Gold Coast (6/1), Confrontational (15/2), Far From A Ruby (9/1), Azets (10/1), Swissal (11/1), Global Hope (18/1), Bravo Faisal (28/1), Akua (50/1), Glorious Rio (150/1)

WINNETKA has been running creditably over the winter and he is very interesting back in a class 6. Hollie Doyle takes over from an apprentice and he should go close in this company. Swinging Eddie has to be taken seriously but a wide draw could make things difficult for him. Confrontational has each-way claims too.
