Forecasts

Marching Mac (2/1), Enderman (3/1), Fortunate Star (11/2), Sounds Of Spring (8/1), Apache Star (10/1), So Grateful (10/1), Beechwood Star (12/1), Mehmo (16/1), Endowed (16/1), Mr Funky Monkey (40/1), Captain Bentley (50/1), Anificas Beauty (100/1), Belvoir Kitten (125/1)

MARCHING MAC rates the pick of these weights so looks the way to go in a race where a few have question marks against them. So Grateful is next on the list on the back of his solid Hamilton third, although both Fortunate Star and Endowed need factoring in too.
