Forecasts

Cruise Control (9/4), Evies First (4/1), Whatever Next (9/2), Inherit The Rain (9/2), Stranger Danger (7/1), Captain Oupie (8/1), What A Winner (10/1), Light That Loose (11/1), Paris Rix (25/1), Big Bay (25/1), Regimental (28/1)

CRUISE CONTROL is motoring along nicely and just about gets the nod in this company. Whatever Next is the pick of the remainder, while Light That Loose isn't dismissed lightly.
