Forecasts

Proclaimer (4/1), Fantasy Believer (9/2), Enough Already (5/1), Stately Home (15/2), Tricolore (15/2), Brains (8/1), Spirit Of The Bay (17/2), Graignes (10/1), Buxted Too (12/1), Handel (40/1), Seventh Kingdom (125/1)

PROCLAIMER's AW strike rate is an enviable one, and with his latest C&D win well advertised by the second since, this 3 lb higher mark looks well within range. Graignes has rejoined George Baker and could be well treated with Tricolore completing the shortlist.
