Forecasts

Greenlighttoheaven (11/4), Acorn (10/3), Inherit The Rain (4/1), Captain Morisco (13/2), Al Qaasim (15/2), Naval Secret (8/1), Whatever Next (10/1), Captain Oupie (16/1), Forest Spy (16/1), Giacomo Puccini (28/1)

Verdict

GREENLIGHTTOHEAVEN continues to operate somewhere near current peak and has a fair chance. Inherit The Rain is fancied as the best alternative, while Captain Oupie might be tough to keep out of the minor places.
