Forecasts

Tuscan Gold (2/1), Coming In Hot (11/2), Arilena (11/2), Runway Bomb (7/1), Ampersand (15/2), Life Goes On (15/2), Rockingthetimeaway (17/2), Written In Stone (12/1), Time Is Ticking (20/1), Rock On Captain (28/1), Treaty (33/1), Smelting (40/1)

Verdict

AMPERSAND has strung together several good efforts recently and should make a bold show. Tuscan Gold has the best credentials of the remainder, while Written In Stone is another to bear in mind.
