Forecasts

Quick Breath (3/1), Harbour Vision (4/1), Cuban Cigar (9/2), Sayifyouwill (11/2), Toussarok (15/2), Eagle Creek (15/2), Swiss Pride (12/1), Gavi Di Gavi (20/1), Spring Romance (33/1)

CUBAN CIGAR's best form has been on polytrack, including his sole career win over this C&D. He's been runing respectably on turf but should really appreciate the return to the all-weather and he looks the one to side with. Quick Breath has three C&D wins to his name and he has to be respected. Sayifyouwill is another C&D winner that is far from out of it.
