Forecasts

Cabinet Shuffle (5/2), Who's That Star (9/2), Moya Wa Laliga (6/1), Ridge To Reef (8/1), Jet Cat (8/1), In Cahoots (9/1), West Coast Lover (12/1), Frontline Fighter (14/1), Another Thief (16/1), Midnight Badger (20/1), Admiralty Arch (25/1), What A Tiger (28/1), Southern Blaze (33/1), Aristachus (33/1), Dark Tide (40/1), Edgartown (40/1)

JET CAT's recent efforts have been likeable on the whole and he sets the bar. Who's That Star is taken for the forecast, while Midnight Badger is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the line up.
