Forecasts

Take To War (9/4), Blazing Light (5/2), Monsieur Chevelle (11/4), Osceola (4/1), Tommy The Kidd (14/1), Luck Of The Iris (16/1), Mrs Shelby (18/1), Belle's First Wave (20/1), Roy's Bolt (40/1)

MONSIEUR CHEVELLE has recorded some excellent efforts in recent races and is much the one to aim at. Blazing Light is the most realistic next preference, while Belle's First Wave commands respect as well.
