Forecasts

Swelltime (5/4), Mountain Fox (11/2), Believe Jack (13/2), Trump Card (15/2), Dusty Winds (10/1), Pro Bono (11/1), Aunty Audrey (12/1), Tucson (14/1), Bolero (20/1), Lightsider (22/1), Ben Alexander (25/1), Too Falutin (28/1), No Trouble (33/1), Carried (40/1), Santorini Sun (50/1), Chaparral Dream (50/1), Reflectionist (50/1), Fahee (80/1), Hurricane Sky (100/1), Wish Me (100/1)

SWELLTIME arrives on the back of a couple of decent efforts over hurdles this spring and might be worth siding with after being given a chance by the handicapper in this sphere. Mountain Fox, Believe Jack and Trump Card head the dangers.
