Forecasts

Zero To A Hundred (11/4), Mcmanaman (4/1), Dignity Joy (7/1), Scots Pine (17/2), Martial Art (9/1), Great Image (12/1), Panoshoshic (12/1), Nimer (16/1), Sa'aab (16/1), Bawadi Spirit (18/1), Emdakam (18/1), Animal Life (25/1), Creek Horizon (28/1), Bedouins Boy (40/1), Bridge To Heaven (40/1), Sportswriter (40/1), Dubai Ma Yahab (50/1)

MCMANAMAN is of interest debuting for the Doug Watson yard and just about shades the vote. Zero To A Hundred gets the nod among the others, while Martial Art is another that could go well.
