Forecasts
Radicchio (15/8), Storm Brasco (10/3), Marauding Horde (4/1), Thunee Playa (8/1), Silent War (14/1), Son Of Raj (14/1), Master Christmas (14/1), Hotarubi (18/1), Royal Edition (25/1)
RADICCHIO sets a tall standard if this different trip to usual doesn't cause problems. Master Christmas is most likely the toughest opposition, while Thunee Playa is perhaps the most interesting other runner in the field.
