Forecasts

Celtic Chief (9/4), Greenland (7/2), Mont Loisir (4/1), Trippi's Silk (9/2), Naushon (7/1), All About Ronnie (10/1), Sacambaya (10/1), Willie John (14/1), Infrared (33/1), Atlantic King (33/1), Warmheartofafrica (33/1), Fly Futura (40/1), Hakas Krakas (40/1), Dance Master (40/1), Touchdown (50/1), Mister Miyagi (50/1)

TRIPPI'S SILK let his backers down last time, but should make the most of this opening. Celtic Chief seems the most likely to take advantage if the selection fails to deliver, while All About Ronnie might well have a say as well.
