Forecasts

Gregorians Star (9/4), Stintino Sunset (3/1), Virtual Hug (3/1), Skimming Along (7/2), Pyrrhic Dancer (6/1), Bondi Man (13/2), Bond Spirit (8/1), Manila Mist (8/1), Rebel Cove (12/1), Courageous Gold (16/1), Uther Pendragon (28/1)

If BONDI MAN can reproduce the form he showed when runner-up at Nottingham last time he may finally get off the mark. Virtual Hug can extend his run of good efforts over C&D this summer to 3 and provide the chief threat ahead of Stintino Sunset.
