Forecasts

Arilena (7/2), Samoa (5/1), Inafix (11/2), Prized Platinum (6/1), Jet Cat (7/1), After Hours (15/2), Green Sceptre (8/1), Written In Stone (11/1), Life Goes On (14/1), Red Knot (14/1), Samthewiseman (20/1), Ashanti Sword (33/1), Phala Millions (40/1), Miraculous Man (50/1), Bridge Of Spies (66/1)

RED KNOT is in great heart and has a clear chance. After Hours could be the chief danger, while Samoa should also be considered.
