Forecasts

One Armed Bandit (11/10), Limelight Legend (4/1), Life On The Tides (4/1), Mind How You Go (8/1), Serpentine Fire (8/1), Fine Dining (10/1), Global Drumbeat (20/1), Vila Vicosa (33/1), Jailhouse Cat (66/1)

ONE ARMED BANDIT is a long way clear on all known form and would be folly to ignore. Life On The Tides seems the most likely to step into the breach if the selection fails to deliver on his debut, while Vila Vicosa is the tentative selection for third. .
