Forecasts

Smith And Wesson (7/4), Laetitia's Angel (4/1), Tayooba (9/2), Covert Operator (5/1), Looking Hot (13/2), South Boy (11/1), Tangerine Pearl (14/1), Love Bite (20/1)

Verdict

COVERT OPERATOR looks marginally the best in this field but has little margin for error. Looking Hot is not one to underestimate all the same, while Laetitia's Angel comes into calculations for minor honours.

  1. Covert Operator5/1
  2. Looking Hot13/2
  3. Laetitia's Angel4/1
