Forecasts

Le Reveur (11/4), Mystical Air (3/1), Madame Peltier (5/1), Urban Violet (15/2), Cosmos Raj (9/1), State Secretary (9/1), Bakersboy (10/1), Ostilio (25/1)

MADAME PELTIER is a likeable type with a good record fresh, so it might be worth taking a chance on her to make a winning return from a year off the track, with Le Reveur appealing as the obvious threat under a penalty. Urban Violet and State Secretary have both slipped to handy marks and could take a hand if back to form.
