Forecasts

Dr Strangelove (6/5), Fort Campbell (2/1), Kyoto (11/4), Day Of Grace (11/2), Thaloria (12/1), Grey Soul (14/1), Give Me The Night (22/1), Moonlight Bomb (50/1), Henrytheninth (100/1), Desert Charm (250/1)

DR STRANGELOVE led close home on his 6f course debut in a style which suggests 7f could suit even better and he's taken to defy a penalty. Kyoto is a very interesting newcomer and market strength behind him would make him a potential big threat. Fort Campbell showed promise on the second of 2 outings last year and also makes the shortlist.
