Forecasts

Kendancer (15/8), Vado Forte (15/8), Felix Desjy (5/2), Tom McGreevy (7/2), Clever Currency (8/1), Gino Drummer Boy (17/2), Simply Shabra (12/1), Circus Act (14/1), Sirekoff (18/1), Knockaneleigh Girl (20/1), Sefton Warrior (25/1), Cathy West (100/1), And Still I Rise (100/1), Molly Molone (125/1)

FELIX DESJY has an absence to overcome but could easily prove too good for these. Vado Forte is next best ahead of Clever Currency.
