Forecasts

First Sight (1/1), Highbank (6/1), Ouzo (8/1), Track Of Time (8/1), Imperial Emperor (9/1), Laser Guided (10/1), White Wolf (14/1), King Of Time (18/1), Naxos (20/1), Silent Film (20/1), Ursa Minor (28/1), All The King's Men (28/1), Laser Show (33/1), Good Fortune (40/1), Mount Tambora (50/1), Zaman (66/1)

FIRST SIGHT never really got a chance to open up on his comeback run and looks sure to go close if getting the breaks this time. Fellow Godolphin inmate White Wolf should go well on his return from a break, while Laser Guided is also considered.
