Forecasts

Muntahez (5/1), Musalsal (6/1), Sideshow Bob (13/2), Chimeric (7/1), Plunkett (9/1), Raffaello (10/1), Dromod Lad (12/1), Power Of Lazarus (14/1), Jm Barrie (14/1), Autumn Mist (14/1), Roxette (18/1), Tommy The Hat (18/1), Mienvee Flyer (20/1), Mairead Kate (25/1), Theoneyouare (28/1), Dark Design (40/1), Summer's Dream (150/1), Sassy Dancer (150/1), Tai Sing Yeh (150/1)

SIDESHOW BOB has been knocking firmly on the door in AW handicaps during the winter and she'll have every chance if able to continue the good work back on turf. Jm Barrie has edged down to a workable mark and he is next on the shortlist. Chimeric, Musalsal and Plunkett all make each-way appeal, while Roxette is open to improvement now pitched into a handicap.
