Forecasts

Chimed (4/11), Chillingham (5/1), Golden Keeper (5/1), Jacovec Cavern (22/1), Punto Banco (22/1), Chuvelo (40/1), Sweet Reclaim (100/1), Monsieur Co (125/1), Daaris (125/1), Isla Diamonds (150/1), Cold Henry (200/1)

CHIMED's Windsor second to the useful Maksud reads well and he's worth a chance to atone for a lesser run at Nottingham since. Chillingham showed promise on his Redcar debut and can fill the forecast spot. Golden Keeper may prove best of the remainder.
