Forecasts

Maxxum (10/3), En Avant (10/3), Aqua Court (4/1), For The Cause (11/2), Dont Doubt Me (9/1), Vintage Writer (12/1), Synone (14/1), Geisha Du Levant (25/1), Forever On Fire (28/1), Coconoir (33/1), Taxi Rank (40/1), Half Grand (40/1), Daly's Quest (50/1), Topothelane (50/1), Eddies Pride (66/1)

A very weak maiden which can go to the form choice AQUA COURT. The progressive Maxxum is feared most ahead of Dont Doubt Me
