Forecasts

Lethal Touch (5/2), Mutara (11/4), Couldn't Could He (5/1), Hellavaheart (11/2), The Residencies (7/1), Shut Up And Dance (17/2), Falmouth Ballerina (28/1), Urneyman (66/1)

MUTARA has been running consistently well and can gain a deserved first victory. Lethal Touch and Hellavaheart rate the principal dangers.
