Forecasts

Parting Glass (9/4), Daisy Jones (5/2), Heartrate (11/2), Yuzu (11/2), So Majestic (9/1), Zaragoza (14/1), Elda (16/1), Ferrari Desert (25/1), Giocoso (28/1), Strath Dancer (40/1), Gosford (50/1), Daonethatgotaway (50/1), Nation Of Stars (66/1), Vikki Wall (66/1), Wild Eyed Girl (100/1), Gianh River (200/1), Second Fiddle (250/1), Marino Point (250/1)

This can go to PARTING GLASS, who ran a cracker on his return at Tipperary last month and remains open to improvement. Daisy Jones and Heartrate rate the principal dangers.
