Forecasts

Fusion Gold (5/2), King Of The Nite (7/2), Addicted To Chaos (4/1), Cocobai (11/2), Chosen Mark (6/1), Show Maker (15/2), Balefire (14/1), Axopar (16/1), Heraldic (33/1), Morrabbi Al Ajjial (40/1)

CHOSEN MARK may have been stretched by the longer trip last time but a return to form should see him complete the job. Question marks aplenty over most of the rest, but King of the Nite and Show Maker can make the places.
