Forecasts

Slieve Binnian (4/5), Encosta (8/1), Polemon (17/2), Church Mountain (10/1), Trethorn (12/1), Burren Song (14/1), It'sonlyjustbegun (14/1), Pralognan (18/1), Autocrat (25/1)

PRALOGNAN lurks on a tempting mark and is worth chancing back on AW having gone close on his only other start on polytrack. Autocrat and the hat-trick seeking Church Mountain, if he stays, are dangers.
