Forecasts

Top Secret (9/4), Aratus (5/2), Talis Evolvere (4/1), Court Of Session (5/1), United Front (9/1), Plantadream (22/1), Crystal Casque (25/1), Good Too (125/1)

TOP SECRET was well on toip when beating Talis Evolvere over C&D last time and is worth a chance to follow up at the possible expense of the same rival, who is respected. United Front has become well treated and is worthy of consideration after having no luck last time.
