Forecasts

Millionaire Waltz (1/1), Sea Storm (4/1), Pallas Lord (7/1), Rum Runner (9/1), Harvest Day (11/1), Listen Again (12/1), Cosmic Star (33/1), God Of Dreams (40/1), Equidae (50/1), Elladora (50/1), Harworth (80/1)

MILLIONAIRE WALTZ bids for the C&D hat-trick. He carries a 5 lb penalty for his most recent victory but looks ahead of the handicapper. Sea Storm ran well over C&D when last seen in August and has to be considered. A case can also be made for Elladora.
