Forecasts

Siberian Steel (5/2), Covert Operator (10/3), Axel Collins (9/2), War Queen (11/2), Successful Secret (7/1), Pendragon (15/2), Samoa (15/2), Bom Bom (28/1)

Verdict

SIBERIAN STEEL has been hard to fault in recent runs and is just about the pick in this line up. Pendragon is taken for the forecast, while Samoa commands a closer look as well.
