Forecasts

Dubai Immo (5/6), The Menstone Gem (3/1), Verona Star (13/2), Prince Achille (10/1), Scotch Mistress (16/1), Ajs Barood (22/1), Danby Wiske (40/1), Mister Falsetto (40/1), Mad Artymaise (50/1), Billyb (66/1), O Sullivan (66/1), Kata Heart's (100/1), Samurai Sneddz (200/1), Coeur De Coeurs (300/1)

DUBAI IMMO showed up really well on his first run when runner-up over C&D and is taken to go one better now with a fair bit of improvement in the pipeline. The Menstone Gem has to concede weight all round but is still not taken lightly after his recent C&D success, while newcomers Verona Star and Ajs Barood need considering too, especially if the market speaks in their favour.
