Forecasts

Alafdhal (13/8), White Umbrella (11/2), Toussarok (6/1), Caesars Pearl (7/1), Beauzon (17/2), Heartrate (11/1), Smasher (14/1), Ravensbourne (16/1), Watermelon Sugar (20/1), Not Just Yet (28/1), Savannah Smiles (33/1), The Toff (50/1)

SMASHER thrived here earlier this year and could get back on the up after his Kempton return. Beauzon and Alafdhal are keeping busy and can go well again. Caesars Pearl is another to consider.
