Forecasts

Olivia's Way (7/4), Thunee Playa (11/4), Son Of Raj (11/2), Hotarubi (15/2), Chestnut Bomber (8/1), Two Miles West (11/1), Marauding Horde (12/1), Royal Edition (18/1), Future Pearl (22/1), Poets Warrior (28/1)

SON OF RAJ makes most appeal down in class. Two Miles West could be the toughest opponent, while Thunee Playa can also figure.
