Forecasts

Mid Winter Wind (4/7), Ryans Boulevard (4/1), Dual Prophecy (17/2), The Octagon (12/1), Rock Of Bismantova (14/1), No Place Like Home (20/1), Festival Of Magic (28/1), Pacific (28/1), Oklahoma Twister (33/1), Brightest Blaze (33/1), Bompas (33/1), Irish Love (40/1), Knockemstiff (40/1), Nkandla Gold (50/1)

MID WINTER WIND isn't easy to oppose on the form he has shown and looks to have a straightforward task. Ryans Boulevard could play a major part in proceedings, while Festival Of Magic is another likely to be on the premises.
