Forecasts

Semser (2/1), Hurtle (4/1), Clear Justice (13/2), Agapanther (7/1), Milvus (7/1), First Encounter (15/2), Bakersboy (12/1), Alyara (20/1), Laurentia (22/1), Velvet Vulcan (22/1), Juan Cool Dude (25/1), Crazy Maisie (25/1), Leon Trotsky (40/1), Floridian (50/1), Explosively (50/1), Beautiful Surprise (125/1)

CLEAR JUSTICE is already a dual scorer this term and signalled he is ready to go in again when a very good Brighton second last time out. Alyara is on a long losing run but next on the list, with Laurentia and Hurtle also in the mix.
