Forecasts

Bolt Of Thunder (13/8), Indian Dream (3/1), Harry The Haggler (10/3), Centre Court (11/2), Taritino (10/1)

Four of the five runners newcomers, and the one that appeals most on paper is sole-filly CENTRE COURT fot the Johnstons. Michael Bell's Indian Dream looks next best, while Bolt of Thunder is presumably thought capable of better than he showed on debut.
