Forecasts

Ring Of Gold (3/1), Swinging Eddie (7/2), The First Hurrah (9/2), Luscifer (7/1), Alcazan (17/2), Kenstone (14/1), Last Mission (16/1), Rhubarb (18/1), Horace Greasley (18/1), One Step Beyond (28/1), Donny Marlow (28/1), Forbearing (40/1)

THE FIRST HURRAH went off too hard in first-time headgear at Kempton 2 months ago and is lurking on a tempting mark for her new yard. Swinging Eddie pulled clear of the rest when a close third here 11 days ago and rates a big threat back down in class, with Luscifer and Ring of Gold others to consider.
