Forecasts

Mount Athos (8/11), Vafortino (11/2), First Folio (11/2), Rhythm Master (6/1), Spirit Of Nguru (10/1), Dubai Station (18/1), Sir Dancealot (25/1), Documenting (33/1), Soar Above (100/1)

MOUNT ATHOS is progressive and quickened clear in impressive fashion when scoring over C&D 5 months ago, so he's the obvious way to go. Fellow last-time-out winner Dubai Station is another player and Rhythm Master is of interest.
