Forecasts

Give Us A Smile (11/10), Bob Lee Swagger (5/2), Big Five (6/1), Maldano (9/1), Fujisan (9/1), Regazzo Grande (16/1), Fly Like A Falcon (22/1), Master Of Defense (28/1), Shunmyo (33/1)

GIVE US A SMILE looks to have marginally the best credentials but it promises to be touch and go. Fly Like A Falcon has the best claims of the remainder, while Bob Lee Swagger is also in the running for some place money at least.
