Forecasts

Socrates (10/3), Coin Spinner (7/2), Tempting Fate (7/2), After The Rain (4/1), Al Sakeet (7/1), Kwite A Trip (8/1), Mount Pleasant (10/1), Bold Ransom (12/1), Pray For Rain (14/1), Mr Cobbs (14/1), Chantyman (22/1), Filippo (28/1)

SOCRATES's recent form just about edges this but he will need to be on song. Pray For Rain can also play a leading part, while After The Rain might well have a say as well.
