Forecasts

Night Tiger (4/1), Mighty Mac (5/1), The Tinkerman (6/1), Michael Faraday (13/2), Fort Red (13/2), Nordic Chief (7/1), Winter Pearl (15/2), Benjamin (10/1), Steadfast (14/1), Plaza Accord (14/1), Lines Crossed (16/1), Hard Winter (18/1), Wyag (20/1), Open Highway (20/1), Aberdeen (28/1), Raf's Rocket (33/1), King's Ransom (33/1)

MIGHTY MAC has run plenty of good races recently and will probably take the beating. Michael Faraday is fancied as the best bet for second, while Nordic Chief also demands a closer look.
