Forecasts

Victory Twist (3/1), Zooberi (4/1), Master Of Law (9/2), Caesura (9/2), Fleet Commander (11/2), Bend The Rules (6/1), Forest Jump (15/2), Tom's Act (11/1), Congo Compaq (12/1)

FLEET COMMANDER should be thereabouts but will need to be on song. Zooberi is also in with a shout, while Forest Jump is another with the potential to be on the premises.
