Forecasts

Downtown Getaway (6/5), Just Cause (5/2), Diable De Sivola (15/2), Frenchpeps (9/1), Frankies Fire (14/1), Vango De Vaige (16/1), Shaughnessy (18/1), Some Ambition (125/1)

JUST CAUSE has been making hay in points and could belatedly get off the mark over fences back in this sphere. Downtown Getaway is respected, while Vango de Vaige also has a shout.
