Forecasts

Global Export (7/2), Goonyaboyya (7/2), Firm Belief (6/1), Spinning Web (6/1), My Birthday Girl (15/2), Fair Damsel (15/2), Grann's Boy (8/1), Dollar Value (11/1), The Truant (14/1), Walnut Beach (16/1), Creative Dancer (20/1), Wishes And Dreams (25/1), Mythical Times (28/1), Tenth Amendment (50/1), Sioux Grit (50/1), Mambo De La Luna (50/1)

GLOBAL EXPORT and Fair Damsel both arrive here on the back of good efforts over hurdles and are appealing off workable marks, with marginal preference is for the former. Goonyaboyya is just about third choice ahead of Dollar Value and long-standing maiden Walnut Beach.
