Forecasts

Tickets (2/1), Havana Smoke (3/1), Space Ninja (16/5), Galel (17/2), Yaahobby (9/1), Ana Emaraaty (10/1), Retirement Beckons (20/1), Kapparis Kid (20/1), Dash Power (125/1)

HAVANA SMOKE continues to knock on the door so remains of interest with headgear re-fitted. Kapparis Kid is worth a second look back on AW, with Space Ninja another to consider.
