Forecasts

Tipsy Tiger (11/10), College Choir (10/3), Lucentio (7/2), Free Speech (9/1), Memories Maker (11/1)

COLLEGE CHOIR is gradually getting the hang of things and she's bred to be better than an opening mark of 70, so she takes narrow preference over Free Speech, who should benefit from the step back up in trip. Memories Maker is another one to be interested in.
