Forecasts

Confils (10/3), Precision Storm (9/2), Chinese Whisperer (5/1), Broken Rifle (8/1), Tundra (8/1), Plansina (9/1), Selecto (10/1), Limelighter (12/1), Jupiter Road (18/1), Tawtheef (18/1), Channel Packet (20/1), Drew Breeze (40/1), Tackleslikeaferret (40/1), Magical Dragon (66/1)

The tentative vote goes to SELECTO, who took a step back in the right direction over an inadequate trip at Chepstow and now figures off a career-low mark. Confils and Chinese Whisperer are a couple of potential threats in an open race.
