Forecasts

Chantilly (11/8), Poetic Sound (2/1), Sea Eagle (11/2), Akecheta (9/1), Weston (14/1), Inner Success (33/1)

CHANTILLY hasn't really kicked on from a promising start to the season but this represents a marked drop in class and he should be able to capitalise for all that Weston is a big threat on form. Poetic Sound is open to further improvement and isn't a forlorn hope.
