Forecasts

Party Time (5/2), Go Man Go (3/1), Giacomo Puccini (9/2), Purple Flame (6/1), Aqua Bolt (8/1), Antigonus (8/1), Aj's Captain (11/1), Good Rhythm (14/1), Travelling Light (25/1), Burning Wings (25/1)

ANTIGONUS is in a good vein of form and just about gets the nod in this field. Go Man Go arguably sets the standard among the remainder, while Giacomo Puccini is another to come into the reckoning.
