Forecasts

Mashaaer (6/5), Central Hall (5/1), Sunglasses (11/2), Morning Post (11/2), Regal Rambler (13/2), Baikal (12/1), War Bonnet (33/1), Winning Empress (50/1), Ha'an (66/1), Roaring River (100/1), Astronomic (200/1)

MASHAAER is the clear form pick and should be able to capitalise on a good opportunity. Simon and Ed Crisford run a pair of well-bred newcomers in Sunglasses and Central Hall, so market for support for either of those two would be significant.
