Forecasts

Hurricane Alex (5/2), Guild (3/1), Newgirlintown (8/1), Jake Peter (8/1), Sam Missile (17/2), Rebel Tale (17/2), Dalvey (12/1), Angel In The Sky (16/1), Convertible (20/1), Play The Game (28/1)

Having been narrowly touched off the last twice, HURRICANE ALEX is fancied to gain reward for his excellent recent form. Sam Missile, who bounced back here 9 days ago, is considered a danger if he's able to back up that effort, while Guild is also going through a good spell, so can't be ignored.
