Forecasts

Pembroke (13/8), Gimme A Diamond (2/1), The Charioteer (3/1), Bennelong Point (12/1), Valyrian Sword (12/1), Western Jack (14/1), American Hashtag (28/1), Dashing Legend (40/1), Janneman (66/1)

THE CHARIOTEER left the impression first time up there's more to come and is likely to improve considerably. Pembroke seems the leading threat, while Gimme A Diamond could also get a look-in.
