Forecasts

Dancingtothelight (4/5), Champagne Mac (7/2), Counter Attack (11/2), Colonel Green (14/1), Babylon (14/1), Barnbougle (16/1), Green Knight (18/1), Typically French (20/1), Newton Heath (20/1), Monkey Puzzle (22/1), Dance Master (28/1)

DANCINGTOTHELIGHT is fairly tough to fault and is much the one to aim at. Champagne Mac is given the vote for second, while Colonel Green also demands scrutiny.
