Forecasts

Cuban Grey (4/1), Turn Up The Beat (9/2), Sam's Xpress (5/1), Livingston Range (6/1), Leblon Girl (8/1), My Girl Sioux (10/1), Rattletheonionbag (10/1), Babyface (12/1), Nordic Passage (12/1), No Speed Limit (14/1), Havana Notion (25/1), Clarabell (25/1), Happy Henry (33/1), Magna Beauty (66/1)

A few with chances but LIVINGSTON RANGE signalled he is ready to go in again when a good recent third here and can now capitalise on a handy-looking mark. C&D second Turn Up The Beat heads the list of dangers, with My Girl Sioux, Sam's Express and Cuban Grey all in the picture too.
