Forecasts

Fireflare (2/1), Hiawatha Goldberg (11/4), Global Ruler (7/2), Hell's Bells (15/2), Basie Raakvat (8/1), First Master (17/2), Lemon Scent (9/1), Gijima Mfana (11/1), Arsene Lupin (66/1)

HIAWATHA GOLDBERG has marginally the best all-round profile but it promises to be touch and go. Global Ruler makes most appeal among the remainder, while Fireflare also requires respect.
