Forecasts

Crystal Casque (10/3), Mumtaaz (7/2), Rains Of Castamere (9/2), Tommy Rock (11/2), Buckingham (7/1), Strawberry Jack (7/1), Canal Rocks (14/1), Secret Return (16/1), Born To Destroy (22/1)

MUMTAAZ has done well since joining this yard and can improve again to gain a second C&D win. Strawberry Jack beat the selection over C&D last time, but a 5 lb pull may make it difficult for him to confirm that form. Crystal Casque is slowly coming to the boil and she'll be a danger.
