Forecasts

Classic Getaway (4/9), Carfax (4/1), Calagogo (11/2), Battle Frontier (8/1), For The Cause (9/1), A Milan To One (22/1), Buffy Summers (22/1), Major Wells (33/1), Bolintlea (40/1), Right Turn Clyde (50/1), Listentillitellyea (80/1), Dappled Grass (80/1), Spottheluney (100/1)

CLASSIC GETAWAY went into the record books when selling for £570,000 just before Christmas and the impressive point winner looks well placed to make a successful start in this sphere for his top connections. Calagogo sets a fair standard and has place claims, while Bolintlea is considered after her recent success between the flags.
