Forecasts

Vibe Sa (10/3), King Of Numbers (9/2), Prince Of Kildare (13/2), Dylan's Champ (7/1), It's Personal (17/2), Paul Revere (17/2), Longsword (9/1), Lonely As A Cloud (9/1), Cian The Conqueror (12/1), Kinshin Sha (22/1), Rock Of Bismantova (28/1), Palace Revolt (28/1), Raining Rubies (33/1), Blaze A Way (33/1), Esquevelle (33/1), What A Tiger (40/1), Spirited Girl (66/1)

DYLAN'S CHAMP was the beaten market pick last time out, but edges it as the selection once again. Prince Of Kildare seems the most likely to pounce if the selection fails to deliver, while Vibe Sa is another that merits respect.
