Forecasts

Spectatrice (5/2), Licit (7/2), Lightening Gesture (9/2), Tiberio Force (5/1), Whitwell (13/2), Birdie Putt (15/2), Iron Sheriff (10/1), Witham River (14/1), Casting Vote (18/1), Bigbadboy (33/1)

LICIT has been shaping up well and is interesting under a change of rider, so gets the nod ahead of Spectatrice, who might be able to up her game in first-time cheekpieces. Whitwell is another one to consider.
