Forecasts

Stintino Sunset (3/1), Birthday Angel (10/3), First Encounter (9/2), Kirkuila (11/2), Fighting Poet (8/1), Ciara Storm (11/1), Galileo's Compass (11/1), Dogged (20/1), Agapanther (33/1), Senseofentitlement (250/1)

STINTINO SUNSET is a consistent operator, which often counts for a lot at this level so she looks the answer. Birthday Angel has yet to win a race but can make his presence felt, with First Encounter another to consider.
