Forecasts

Tipsy Tiger (11/4), Amancio (7/2), Wintercrack (11/2), Billiegee (7/1), Monteria (17/2), Glendower (10/1), User Amistoso (12/1), Steel Tiger (14/1), Al Mootamarid (16/1), Ectocross (20/1)

TIPSY TIGER is going through a good spell and can get the better of Amancio once again despite a 2 lb swing in the weights. Steel Tiger is a potential improver now switched to handicaps after a break/gelding operation and is another to consider.
