Forecasts

Hawkbill (2/1), Youcanthurrylove (4/1), Dungeons (9/2), Exhale (6/1), Banha Bridge (15/2), Global Impact (8/1), Vesuvio (10/1), Luthuli (10/1), Mardi Gras (10/1), The Brief (16/1)

EXHALE is running very well right now as most recent effort showed and is well up to winning this. Youcanthurrylove is not one to underestimate all the same, while Hawkbill shouldn't be far away either.
