Forecasts

Light As Air (4/6), Viking Invasion (10/3), Saints N Scholars (9/2), Johnny's Oasis (12/1), Enziya (16/1), Calcifer (28/1), Something Noble (80/1), Antoine De Paris (125/1), Whats New (150/1), Quare Fast (150/1)

LIGHT AS AIR really caught the eye on debut at Navan 12 days ago and can be expected to take a big step forward. Viking Invasion sets the standard on the pick of his form, while the selection's stablemate Saints n Scholars can't be discounted on only his second run.
