Forecasts

Alafdhal (9/4), Mimoset (7/2), Steel Duchess (7/2), Real Estate (6/1), Hundon (11/1), Liberty Bay (12/1), Praise Of Shadows (14/1), Tawaafoq (16/1), Mr Ginja Ninja (40/1), Swooper (150/1)

MIMOSET responded well to this headgear when a close third at Yarmouth and gets the vote off the same mark. Steel Duchess should be in the mix again, with Real Estate another to consider re-united with Robert Havlin.
