Forecasts

Mutadaawel (3/1), Graduate Of Honour (5/1), No Show (6/1), Pro Bono (7/1), Crystal Pool (15/2), Alhaajeb (8/1), Fryerns (14/1), Sweet November (16/1), Camogue Wood (16/1), Deadwood (20/1), She's Good Company (22/1), Ragtime Red (28/1), Misty At Sea (40/1), Monsieur Piquer (50/1), Maestro Stick (66/1)

MUTADAAWEL ran better than for a while here a fortnight ago and is on a good mark if building on that. Similar comments apply to Crystal Pool, who shaped encouragingly here latest and could be coming to the boil again. Pro Bono completes the shortlist.
