Forecasts

Apache Son (11/4), Whispers Of War (3/1), Atarime (3/1), Celtic Rush (7/2), American Biscuit (13/2), Fushimi Inari (7/1), Twin Turbo (15/2), Douglas Dragon (16/1), Global Impact (16/1), Weather Wizard (22/1), Al Akhtaar (40/1)

APACHE SON continues to run creditably and is probably the one to beat. Celtic Rush is a marginal preference for second, while Fushimi Inari deserves some consideration too.
