Forecasts

Brenden James (2/1), Pedro (7/2), Gunsmoke (7/1), Chariot Master (7/1), Dammi (9/1), El Romiachi (11/1), Power Surge (14/1), Tuk Tuk (18/1), Cool Runnings (22/1), Che Vincera (22/1), Flying Peter (25/1), Burning Wings (28/1), Can Col (28/1), Nkalanzinzi (40/1), Tartan Dancer (40/1), Displace Time (66/1)

BRENDEN JAMES has run several good races recently and is probably the one to beat. Pedro looks only to be playing for second at best, while El Romiachi is another to bear in mind.
