Forecasts

Slievanorra (5/2), Basetsana (9/2), Abbey Wood (5/1), Aquae Sulis (6/1), O Sole Mio (6/1), Rise (7/1), Isla Morada (11/1), Izhiestia (14/1), Parkdale (20/1), Supreme Win (22/1), Kavian's Cara (25/1), Dice The Bullet (40/1)

SLIEVANORRA headed the market last time out, but still makes most appeal of these. Abbey Wood is chief among the dangers, while Kavian's Cara shouldn't be discarded.
