Forecasts

Fire Group (10/11), Future Vision (4/1), Sharp Spun (9/2), Nimer (5/1), Aneef (16/1), Benmalek (18/1), Law Of Nature (40/1), Hafeet Star (50/1)

FIRE GROUP is well in advance of these on the pick of his form and should get the job done if returning anywhere near his best. Sharp Spun is just about preferred for second, while Future Vision is the other candidate for the three.
