Forecasts

King Of Venus (10/3), South Boy (4/1), Laetitia's Angel (13/2), Ramchandani Road (8/1), In The Ether (17/2), Irontail (10/1), Cool Winter (12/1), Coming In Hot (12/1), Vava Vegas (12/1), Dark Tide (14/1), Mescal (20/1), La Luvia (25/1), Ice Eater (28/1), Whorly Whorly (33/1), Rio's Kiss (33/1), Ashanti Sword (33/1), Eagle Alley (66/1)

Verdict

IRONTAIL continues to operate somewhere near current best and looks the one they all have to beat. In The Ether will probably give the selection most to think about, while King Of Venus can win the battle for minor honours.
