Forecasts

Dubai Poet (5/6), Beaches (4/1), Gaius (5/1), Jabbar (10/1), Mambo Beat (14/1), Royal Aviation (16/1), Zoom (28/1), Nietzsche's Star (33/1), Tropical Talent (40/1), Greg The Great (50/1), Codswallop (150/1), Brilliant Blue (200/1), Mrembo (200/1)

DUBAI POET offered plenty to work on when fourth starting out over C&D a month ago, and with that race working out really well, he should take some stopping with improvement assured. Gaius is more exposed but has the form to be a big factor, with Beaches another open to progress.
