Forecasts

Painite (4/1), Great Affair (5/1), Then In Focus (11/2), Guerra (7/1), Jaspero (8/1), Mingshi (9/1), Ellis Island (10/1), Alado's Pride (10/1), Mohandas (11/1), Gimme Gorgeous (14/1), Lord Nelson (16/1), Uncle George (20/1), Desert Fox (25/1)

ALADO'S PRIDE is proving consistent and seems the one they have to beat. Jaspero appeals most among the rest, while Uncle George also requires a closer look.
