Forecasts

La Boo (2/1), Pinpoint (9/2), Zaphea (5/1), Taygar (15/2), Classy Clarets (15/2), Lady Of The Garr (9/1), Better (12/1), Shatin Venture (18/1)

PINPOINT is the tentative selection with the hope that first-time headgear and a return to this track can spark a return to form. La Boo and Zaphea are feared most.
