Forecasts

Zaynudin (13/8), Valle De La Luna (2/1), Lifetime Legend (3/1), Moracana (5/1), Zurkhana (14/1), Alma Libre (40/1), Thegooseiscooked (50/1), Petrol Head (50/1), Midnight Fame (50/1), Urtheone (150/1), Eve Bee (150/1), Erikson (200/1), Moi Garcon (250/1), Surviving Murmansk (250/1)

ZAYNUDIN is proving expensive to follow but he wasn't seen to best effect when third at Bellewstown 17 days ago, left with too much to do having met with some untimely interference, and is worth another chance given the standard he sets. Moracana may do better still after a couple of promising runs, while Valle de La Luna and Zurkhana are a couple of newcomers to note.
