Forecasts

La Roca Del Fuego (11/4), The Tron (11/4), Big Impact (3/1), Maid Millie (13/2), Irish Times (9/1), Sir Gregory (12/1), Plastic Paddy (12/1), Perfect Symphony (14/1), Aces (20/1), Brazen Belle (33/1), Bernard Spierpoint (33/1), Sea Fern (40/1), Brazen Arrow (40/1), Jonathans Princess (400/1)

Preference is for THE TRON, who ran well in a similar contest here last week and remains fairly treated. Perfect Symphony and La Roca Del Fuego head the list of dangers.
