Forecasts

Esquevelle (7/2), Fully Loaded (7/2), Kalahari Blue (7/2), Chocolate Bomb (5/1), Princeofgreen (6/1), Siberian Steel (15/2), Copper John (14/1), Super Agra (16/1), Silent Trigger (22/1), Pinch Hit (25/1)

PRINCEOFGREEN showed much improved form last time and is well up to winning this. Kalahari Blue makes most appeal of the rest, while Siberian Steel isn't out of it either.
