Forecasts

Sujet (11/4), Gerrit's Gem (11/2), Falls Of Acharn (6/1), Sun Soldier (6/1), Mathan (7/1), I Am Superman (8/1), Blues Emperor (12/1), Pier Pressure (12/1), Zaraahmando (14/1), Ja'marr (20/1), Walhaan (33/1), Facethepuckout (40/1), Solomon Coop (50/1), Brewing (100/1)

Progressive 3-y-o SUJET is taken to pull out more again and make it 3-4 for the campaign. Fellow 3-y-o Mathan may give him most to do ahead of Pier Pressure and I Am Superman, who isn't the easiest to catch right but is well handicapped again.
