Forecasts

Master Garvey (9/4), Senado Square (5/2), Sneddy Eddie (13/2), Asgard's Captain (13/2), Lisieux (12/1), Happenstance (14/1), Meggy Moo (14/1), American In Paris (16/1), Jackie Brown (20/1), Zouperior (28/1)

MASTER GARVEY showed there is a race in him here last time and could be the way to go. Senado Square and Meggy Moo should be in the mix also.
