Forecasts

New Definition (10/11), Bolt Action (9/4), Sipahsalar (4/1), Deguello (10/1), Doctor Mozart (125/1), Wedgewood (150/1)

BOLT ACTION's price rose dramatically earlier this year and he's in excellent hands, so a chance is taken on him to make a winning start. Fellow Breeze-Up recruit Sipahsalar is a danger and New Definition is of obvious interest after his promising start at Doncaster.
