Forecasts

Khanyisa Indlela (9/4), Galaxy Explorer (11/4), Tin Cup (7/2), Tobacconist (5/1), Eventidor (15/2), Brotherhoodofmagic (8/1), San Marzano (9/1), Lucretius (16/1), King Bavarian (16/1)

KHANYISA INDLELA has been running creditably of late and sets the bar. Eventidor is fancied as the best alternative, while Galaxy Explorer might well have a say as well.
