Forecasts

Gimme's Laddie (11/8), Piroshka (9/2), The Mauritian (5/1), Son Of Zeus (11/2), Forest Spy (8/1), Ubisika (10/1), Transact (16/1), Symbol Of Love (22/1), Flowerbomb (25/1), Esther (25/1), Whatever Next (28/1)

THE MAURITIAN could be the way to go. Transact is the choice for second, while Son Of Zeus is another that could go well.
