Forecasts

My Cloud (1/6), Tancredi (16/5), Maguire (25/1), Beautiful Girl (150/1), Brave Musketeer (250/1)

MY CLOUD has shown plenty to work on when runner-up on both of his starts 8 months apart and will struggle to find a better opportunity than this. Well-bred newcomer Tancredi looks the only realistic threat.
