Forecasts

Plains Indian (1/2), God Help Us (6/1), Malinas Glory (13/2), Navigator Jack (11/1), Call Me Rocky (12/1), Winning Rascal (16/1), From The Ashes (16/1), Layla's Daffodil (20/1), Gwan Tadhg (33/1), West Breeze (40/1), Bal Kauto (40/1), C'est Rien (40/1), Rigmarole (50/1), Made In The Woods (50/1), Morricone (50/1), Rose Of Kalanisi (66/1), Not So Proper (66/1), Sir Rock (80/1), Thebabyman (250/1), Ma Hoey (250/1), Cocovango (250/1)

PLAINS INDIAN would probably have won had he stood up here 3 weeks ago and compensation may well await. God Help Us and Call Me Rocky are probably the main threats unless there's confidence behind a newcomer.
