Forecasts

Condor Pasa (5/4), Suspicion (5/2), Creative Story (6/1), Vibrato (10/1), Starshine Legend (10/1), Rock City Falls (12/1), Devoirs Choice (33/1), C'est Bleu (50/1), Card Shark (66/1), Hilltop (100/1), Trapper John (100/1), Tommy The Gun (150/1), The Colorist (200/1), Ashkhabad (250/1)

CONDOR PASA shaped like a decent prospect when third over C&D on debut 7 weeks ago and shades the vote over Suspicion, who caught the eye in a C&D maiden that has been working out well. Creative Story is closely related to connections' very smart but ill-fated 2-y-o Quorto so looks the pick of the newcomers.
